Ok, after sorting this out and she is now running as she should ( just the cabinet to sort out which is nearly finished), i thought i would have a go at doing a full schematic for the MPU1 seeing as there does not appear to be one around. I will make my excuses now........ It`s not perfect, it has probably aged my eye sight by trying to backwards engineer a pcb to a schematic ( thank god it is 70s tech and not triple layer). MISTAKES THERE WILL BE so if anyone notices any let me know and i will check and correct them. It is a big file, it ended up on A2 size and i still ran out of space (appologies for having to cram the rom cartridge in). But it is a start and all being well we can crack it from here. REV2 Bitmap further down thread.

I have a couple of the cards with ribbon cables

The only minor detail I've found so far is you have 2x T2's. The top one should be T4 if I'm not mistaken.

Well spotted, so there were at least two of them unless it is the same one, i cant believe the times i have watched the professionals and never noticed that. Not seen anything fot MPU2 although it is basically an MPU1 with extras if you look at the two side by side you can see the MPU1 circuitry in the MPU2. Infact MPU2 looks like a limousine version of MPU1. If i had an MPU2 i could probably extend the existing diagram to include the extras, although the MPU1 ended up the size of A2 so MPU2 would probably end up on a roll of wall paper 🤣

Just watching an episode of the professionals called "the gun" from 1980 .low and behold there's a nippy nudger in a cafe scene .nice juke bix next to it too .

Which immediatley makes me think of the Boogie Pimps video Somebody To Love (call me what you like ) 😈

Mark... PM me your address I owe you a bunch of flowers 😆 🤣 20260322_101804.mp4

Turned on the dil switch for front openers? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Thanks Bob, it always helps to have that extra set of eyes (i think we used to call it proof reading). I have corrected it on the master and will wait to re-upload as i am sure there will be more.👍 Just noticed for some reason i had not connected pins 3 and 4 on the regulator, have done that now. Also the fuses, FL3 is anyones guess although mine looks about 3 amp ish and F1 and F2 in mine i have no idea if they are original.

Thanks Nick. I've just watched a vid and the 1st reel, most times, only spins a fraction of a revolution. It does spin longer during some sort of game feature but on my test rig I've got no way of knowing when that might be happening? I really need a reel test feature in the self tests, which there isn't.

Just a heads fellas ,recently a guy I know and friend looked into altering the code for both machines to lift the gamble block from £10 to £100 .ive had stake up for many years and whilst I love this lovely old clubber it annoyed me that i couldn't have a proper gamble on it .this is now rectified. Also done is the ludicrous jp tune given for wins on £12 or above .this is now £25 or£50 depending on bank 2 dip 7 setting . I genuinely think this has now enhanced the gameplay significantly as every win can now be gambled upto £100. The new deluxe or improved roms for both machines have now been dumped on here so feel free to play them or add to an emulator. Ive done a couple of vids on my YouTube channel (sulzerned) so enjoy either way . All the best Nick

Thanks guys I’m loving it! Managed to crack one its own mpu looks like I just caught the battery in time! Wet patch under the crusty battery, Otherwise the board is very clean

IMG_6526.mov She lives! Fitted my working spare board, still no boot! Cracked open the game card and re seated the roms and bingo she sprang to life! So its own board works on the bench but I will need to open it up and check it over for battery damage and replace the caps etc but I’m well delighted 🤩 Short video with 20 credits

Well just arrived about an hour ago, and on first look I’m happy! Needs a good clean inside and out, glasses are perfect intervals complete, just the base is missing! Mpu is dead will get a better look tomorrow
