Yes. You should look at the Tempest Troubleshooting Guide and follow it.

>>Well I am back, and troubleshooting these things is still not what I am
good at. I have three Asteroids machines that I would love to get running.
I don't have any known good parts, so I have no idea where to start, or how
to get my scope to work correctly in X-Y mode. See, I can find test
equipment all the time, and don't know how to use it, and I bet there are
people that know how to use it and can't find it.
>>Is there anyone in the Phoenix area that is interested in helping me get
these machines working? Anyone that needs some nice bench power supplies,
or other test equipment that I have? Any true idiots guide to making an
asteroids work? Anyone that needs a pinball worked on in return? I know I
should buckle down and learn this, but I really am itching to play some
Asteroids.
