Question from Jerrod: Hi my name’s Jerrod and I need help if you can. I’ve attached some pics of my original Data East cabinet that I bought converted into a Mortal Kombat 2. I rewired the JAMMA harness and I didn’t pay attention to what wire goes where on the power supply from the transformer and EMI filter. I ended up frying the old power supply (hopefully that’s all I fried) when I hooked up the wires wrong. I thought I could find a wiring diagram or codes but I haven’t been able to and there’s no one where I live that is able to help since it’s an arcade machine. I’m hoping you can guide me to fix it. My 10 year old son is really disappointed. Everything worked previously except the sound which is why I rewired the JAMMA, it’s a long story but it had to be done. Please help! I stumbled across your website and watched a few videos but they didn’t deal with my issue. Definitely glad I watched them though. You guys really know your machines. I would seriously appreciate if you could help, There’s a wire that was marked FG, one side is grounded but the other end is split to two connectors. I don’t know what is hot, ground, 12v, ac, fg, etc. I’m totally lost and I’ve been dying to have this game since I was 13 or so. If you need better pics I can definitely send some. Thank you, Jerrod
