your instinct of it not been the psu is most likely incorrect

sorry for the rude way i began life on this site, as u said i am new to this!

hi to every1 on here i appreciate wot you do 4 people and would appreciate some help! And if in any way i can help others i will try!

[samuel hosick]

welcome to fruit emu samual.

first of all check and make sure the programme card is properly inserted to the scorp board.

then check all connections to make sure they are seated correctly, failing that then its 99% certain its the psu at fault as its a common problem for bell fruit and maygay machines

I remember my 'Around the World' I had the LED's lit and was told that too....yup it was the PSU!

i think it was me that told ya m8 about that psu if i remember correctly

yer its a common problem ady, jus coz all the led's are lit doesn't mean to rule out that its not the psu

[samuel hosick]

thank you lincsleisure1 for helping me!!!!!!!!!!

i have checked the voltage at each pin on the scorpion board and compared it to wot the manual says i should be recieving and everything seems ok!! the required voltage is there! is there any other things you can think to try?

[lincs1]

if there is no loss in voltage from the psu then its gotta be either the scorp board or programme card at fault but saying that i still suss that it may still be the psu.



if you wait till bazpeeb comes on he'll be able to help u more

[samuel hosick]
