Title: Looking for repair info for cps1 willow c board wire hack fell off Post by: Kory on October 03, 2013, 01:05:19 PM Does anyone have any idea how to fix a c board on a willow cps1 board. It used to have a wire hack on it and at some point in time it fell off and I cannot tell where the wire used to be. I can do minor repairs but I'm not that tech savvy and will need basic instructions. If someone can't help me do you know where I can get a new c board. Thanks
The sound works great. The words look great. The only problem is the messed up/glitchy graphic during game play.

If it's a hack to fix a bad connection then simply follow the traces to see where you can attach it.
Another thing to do is to look around for shiny solder where the wire used to be attached. Factory solder will look dull compared to reworked solder.

It could be this jumper wire. That's if Willow is one of these PCB's that have a battery backup, SOME CPS1 boards don't.
