Question
zetsurin
Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone could give me some guidance, and/or perhaps recommend someone in Melbourne (I'm in Prahran) who might be able to repair it?
Basically I bought a Namco System 357 from Japan and the unit fires up just fine, I see it output an image on the TV, it checks the security dongle, continues to boot. Then after about a minute, it beeps 3 times and reboots. Normally, the assumption would be this is a Yellow Light of Death since this is a PlayStation 3-based board. However from what I have seen, the YLoD tends to happen right on boot.
Investigating further and checking with the multimeter, I found that the pins which are supposed to take in 12V and GND to power the JVS IO board, are actually shorted. My attention originally moved to this board as @lobsterboi on the forums mentioned he sees LEDs light up in this area and sure enough besides the power input are two of them, and neither light up when I hook up power to this board.
Below are some pictures. The connector is the white 2 pin which is surrounded by a metal shroud.
Thanks!
