Donkey Kong Cocktail issue
Question: I am wondering if you could point me in a direction on what may be wrong with/how to repair this issue? I purchased it in this condition. As the video below shows it seems to keep repeating the same sounds an display the weird images on the screen.
I have fiddled here and there but nothing I have tried works and I don’t want to mess with something that is unrelated If you have any ideas?

Response from Jonathan: Whenever we are troubleshooting a game, we like to start off by making sure that the board is getting the correct voltage. We recommend using a multimeter to check the voltage at both the power supply and where the harness attaches to your Donkey Kong board. Check out our posts on Checking And Replacing A Power Supply and Checking A Classic Power Supply for more information.
If you’re getting good voltage from your power supply then your board is probably having some issue. There is a good Donkey Kong board troubleshooting site that you might check out. Here’s the link: http://www.brasington.org/arcade/tech/dk
We would also recommend finding a manual for your game as this can also help you out with the troubleshooting process.
Hope that helps. Thank you for your question and good luck with your repair.
