Anyone with a working Johnny Mnemonic...

[PeteB]

If anyone here has a fully functioning Johnny Mnemonic could you please take some pics of the following areas and post them here for me to see?





The playfield wiring harness on this one is a bit of a mess, with a lot of plugs having the wrong socket numbers written on the side of them with permanent marker.

Thanks guys!

Not got a JM to hand or any other machine but first picture all looks correct.

The second picture looks like the GI is wired incorrectly, so a quick look in the manual (page 3-5; PDF is 113/142) says that the top connector the purple wire should be on pin 6 (not pin 5), pin 7 should be White/Brown (not White/Orange), pin 8 should be White/Orange (not White/Purple), pin 9 White/Yellow (not no connection), pin 10 should be no connection (not White/Yellow?), pin 11 should be White/Purple (not White/Brown?).
The bottom connector pin 7 should be White/Brown, pin 8 should be White/Orange, pin 9 should be White/Yellow, pin 10 should be White/Green with pin 11 being no connection.

All sorted. Did things the hard way and matched up the all the wiring with the pins from the manual.

I don't like doing things that way as sometimes the manual is wrong. For example I encountered several connectors which were labelled the wrong way around in the manual compared to the actual boards. Also some connectors are apparently "unused" which is total b0llocks haha!

Anyway game is powering up and working now, although several other issues to fix.

You're going to enjoy it once it's fully working.

Does that create a bum-quivering moment when you power it up first Pete? Or could you make an educated guess that nothing major would go up in smoke if the wiring wasn't perfect?

Haha no, I'm not scared. I'm pretty confident in my abilities.
