I had this happen to my SG50 when I removed the battery on the PCB board and then re-installed it. I had to reset the machine and that fixed it. Any photos of your machine you could post?

If using the re-set key does not clear the problem, then you have to replace the battery...Check battery voltage first...

thanks for the responses i tried the reset and tested the battery. i think it said 3.4 volts. took chips out and reseated them and now i get no display at all. machine lights come on but no display. could it still possibly be the battery?

sounds like you have a loose connection in there somewhere. My SG50 was also malfunctioning when I got it. I just unplugged all the connectors I could find and re-connected them and poof.... it started working normally. If you have 3.4 volts doesn't sound like the battery to me is the problem.

Verify that all chips are installed the right direction...Battery sound like it is good...Make sure it is soldered on good...

Thanks Again. A little background this mach would almost always say roms wrong when turned on after being off for an extended period of time. i would just to keep switching off and on and it would eventually start to work. after this last time of being off for at least six months i got the roms wrong and will not reset and now as stated previously the display is just blank after me messing with the board and chips. i have thought i have checked all connections a few times can you suggest anything else i should check. Thanks

SG50B machine reads RAMS WRONG.  Machine has been unplugged for years.  Is the battery a clip on type or one soldered to the board?  I'm uneasy about how to replace.

the battery is spot welded to a metal housing which is soldered to the MPU board. I found out the hard way and broke mine and tried to solder it back together but the solder wouldn't stick to the battery and I couldn't make a connection. So right now my battery is barely making contact to the plus and minus.
