    Hi Marty.

    Most people repairing boards do it as a hobby as it can take hours upon hours to diagnose an issue meaning it is not really commercially viable.

    However there is a chap in UK that does repairs https://www.facebook.com/RetroClinic/ (Mark) and another guy in Italy https://caiusarcade.blogspot.com/ (Caius).


    What board is it?

    Hi, it's a Tekken Bombjack. Sent the screen supply to the board and visa versa (oops). Don't know why both plugs are the same!

    Have it on a 60 in 1 but it's just not the same.

    Have a few other boards - Mercs, Twin Hawk & Mario Bros, but I'm a Bombjack man.

    I'll have a look at those lads (think 8 bit Manshed recommended Retro Clinic on YT) was just wondering if there was anything more local.

    I suppose I'm looking at 100 blips. Probably twice that to replace.

    Spent a good bit getting the CRT going again after flyback burst - a lot of learning, as couldn't find anyone to fix that either. Think the PCB is beyond me.
