First though, a bit about the machine. This is from the first run of
TSPP. The seller was one of the first to contact me after I posted
about the problem. He's being very helpful. He says he never did any
work on the board and I fully believe him. He's also offering to help
with the cost of repairs if I have to send the board off. Seems clear
to me that this problem was prior to his ownership of the game and he
was fortunate enough to not have whatever caused the problem originally
creep up on him like it has on me. If he wants to chime in on this
thread I don't mind, but I won't mention who it is until I clear it
with him first.
I still don't see anything on either side of the board that indicates
that Q15 and Q16 should jumpered, but I'm certainly not an expert at
this. The diodes do look to be a cleaner job, so perhaps that part is
a standard mod. Hard to believe no one else has seen this on any of
their Stern boards yet though. I thought for sure some other first run
TSPP owner would have chimed in by now if that was a standard mod.
Here are the pics.
