Repair Log (Star Wars)

Game: Star Wars

Problem: Intermittent sound board resets during game play. Choppy /
incorrect sounds.

Solution: +5dc voltage was +4.68dc at the AR 2 board. As a result around
+4.5 was getting to the sound logic after wiring / interconnect drops.
Adjusted AR 2 board to 5.10 to cover the drops. This allowed 5.05 a the
chips. No more problem.

Thought it might be of some interest, this only occurred with some boards in
this cabinet and has been plaguing me for around 2 years.
