The popcorn machine is the new meme of this channel. 🤣
I've been watching this since the beginning, when I didn't know as much. You've helped me with a lot of things doing arcade maintenance, and it's always a pleasure to watch and learn from your videos. Funny that while you were finding issues during the repair work, we had same ideas for how to overcome them. Keep up the great work, John! :D
Sweet Lord, so good to see you back!!!!!
I do love your optimism each time you try something.
Hilarious ending. Didn't see that coming. Great video as always. Keep it up, you're almost done!
Glad you're back, I was going through John's Arcade withdraw! Great video, you're just about done with MKII!
Your Channel is awesome. Greetings from Brazil.
Pt18.....pt17 feels like it's been a year ago lol. I hope you've had a good summer man I completely get the time away. Glad you're back for now 😉 I needed inspiration to get back into the garage myself.
Yes your back! Love your vids i really do! have a very happy day !
"Your..." _what_ (missing possession) "...is back"? "Your [videos] is [are] back"? Or...?
"You're" back. That's probably what he meant.
Maybe, Gozinta, but let's see what _he_ says.
Welcome back, you made my weekend 😄!!
Nice to see your back BRO! Keep it up!
Good to see you back John. Hi from France !
Good to see you back John. Missed you Man!
Since you're not seeing red and green on the monitor, you're also not seeing
on the screen is the "cmos invalid error" which should be on top of the screen
in red on the "using dipswitch coinage" screen . Replace the watch battery
from the board. Turn on and off twice after you've replaced battery. When
it goes back to the rom check diagnostic screen and finishes checking them
which should be highlighted in green you should not see the using dipswitch
coinage screen it should take you to the title screen. Cmos is what saves
number of wins, losses, settings of using coinage or freeplay mode, history
log, etc. When the battery is dead, you'll lose aforementioned above.
It'll restore to factory settings and take you to the using dipswitch coinage
screen and will have to hit the start button. You can get the battery from
batteries plus. About $2.50. If they don't have an exact one, you can also
use one that's slightly thicker. Also remember to put back the dipswitch
settings. Hope this helps.
Good to see this project progress!
Glad to see you back John!
Finally a video for that Mortal Kombat 2 last time I seen John made a video he was making some eggs and some spam LOL
Can we please start a GoFundMe to get John a new popcorn machine.
Tom’s Zippo Channel he needs to get a fondue fountain
KennyKC cotton candy
It's like a Pokémon, specifically a magikarp, if we keep it there long enough it'll evolve on its own into a rotisserie hot dog machine.
John is an arcade operator, he makes more money than you do.
Okura, you don't know how much money either one of them makes.
That brisket looked awesome!
It really was. I wish I could have shown it in the video after I cut it. OMG.
Wow John! You've upped your game since the Zero Commit days. Very cool stuff going on here! I don't know how RUclips recommend this channel, but glad they did. Say "hey" to Riggy if you still talk to him. (Secord 20)
Wow. Secord! How you been?
Malibu John! Glad you’re back!
That ending in the dark is just hilarious!
Hope you had a nice vacation.
So happy to see you back
Thanks!
I too have trouble reading the markings on fuses to see what the amperage is (and I wear bifocals!). :O What I did was I bought a small cheap magnifying glass somewhere (Wal-Mart, I think. It cost me a whole dollar!). Hold the fuse under a light source and the magnifying glass will make reading the fuses a whole lot easier.
Congrats on 40k Subscribers, John! You rock!
i am constantly getting corrupted video myself. keep up the good work John
Watching and playing zombies ate my neighbours. Awesome John thanks.
YEAAAAAAAYAYAYAYAYAYA Been waiting awhile for this episode :D.
He's back !!!
Yes your back,keep the videos coming!
Thanks!
Ghost John. Love it
Well at least you went and invested in smoker. Great choice john. You are going to love it. Try smoking a turkey for thanksgiving. You wont ever use a oven again. I like the arcade repair cooking show lol. Could be a good concept for future videos..
Hi John. Thanks for sharing the PacMan cabinet I made earlier this year. In answer to your coin door question I had to put a single slot X-arcade coin door in to keep the proportions about right. With regards to the side art I got color matched paint that is hopefully close to the original yellow. I would like to put on side art but need to find a reasonably priced solution for getting that scaled artwork printed. If you have any suggestions greatly appreciated. Keep up the great work and hope you get back to creating more frequent content once again. Your uploads are missed
A new John's Arcade video?! 😳 Are my eyes deceiving me?!
It's been a while since I messed with mk2. But make sure all dipswitches are off on the board, or else you cant save some options in the menu.
I believe you need to have all the colors. Or you cant see all the messages.
Also. Midway games have weird encryption in the DCS sound board, and is needed to boot the game fully, IIRC. It's been way too long. Glad to see you back
Any metal objects especially the coin door that somebody might touch has to go directly out to earth to your plug in the wall socket, has to have as little resistance as possible John. And always check your Earth connections back to the plug pin with continuity no more than 3 ohms. A transformer needs to be earthed otherwise it will cause humm.
A shielded wire and or sheaf always is connected at one end only that is the ground Earth and the other end is left open, so you're always work back to the ground End only
At last, your back!!
His what (missing possession)?
An actual Sunday video? OMG!
Right on man, that harness looks like a nightmare to work with man. I'm sure you'll get her up and running soon though, cheers man.
Welcome back John!
Congrats on the 40K
Thanks, Dave!
Oh yeeeess!!!! It’s a LONG one!👍👍
That was my favourite episode ever.
John, you should looking at the Dip Switch Settings of the coinage. I'm not sure about the led from the pcb but I might investigate a little further. You almost done but you need to check the pcb because the Wiring might not be complete, you should double check. Good video and keep up with the videos.
It is looking really good.
Thanks!
Woohoo Welcome Back John been looking forward to this. You think they would of put a window in the smoker so you can see in and resist the temptation of keep opening it which obviously defeats the object. Nice little break seeing your lunch cooking, how was the Brisket in the end? The game looked like it was stuck in a reset loop.
58:21 old grumpy man talking to wire harness. XD
R.I.P to that popcorn machine LOL
Great video John! Pay that electricity bill man! 😎👍😉
When trying to get two terminals onto the same screw with those power supplies, it is easier is you turn one of them upside down, so the flat sides are together. That way they slide on much more easily than when stacked on top of each other.
The end of this vid was awesome
Your back :)
Good to see you back, John. I work in meats, come into my store and I'll give you mark downs. :) I still make your meat balls. If you loved to cook, why not make a second channel about! I love John's Kitchen....it's just not enough episodes. Honestly, I love cooking tips.
I own a piece of that “ICONIC” popcorn machine!! 😂😭😂😭
At 32:00 that connector is for your bill acceptor (3rd coin switch). Purple wires A/C
R.I.P popcorn machine you served the basement well. Lol
Bryan M
R.I.P Mad Planets.
Left the basement quietly while people cared about the popcorn machine
Yay, back to MKII!
Since you are missing red you don't see the error message on the dipswitch screen. It would tell you to hit any button to continue.
Ahh... makes sense.
Gah, was keeping my fingers crossed for you getting this up and running this time around... hook up that bloody soundboard power, play with the dip switches and get it to boot, sooooon!!
Hi John, welcome back!!! Is there any way I can purchase more of those High score sticky notes you made awhile back? Thanks again for all the great videos. Cheers
I was getting worried for you John...been gone for a while! 😂
Yeeeeeessss I’m sooooo happyyyyy
Great video John.... looking forward to the M K booting up . And how was the brisket,?
There's a harness you need that supplies power to the sound board from the main board. Someone on ebay sells nice ones for about $20. That and a battery on the main board should skip that screen but you just need to press a button to skip it.
John, as you are missing red currently, you are not seeing the red error message at the top (probably "CMOS Invalid -- Factory Settings Restored") and the message on the bottom also in red should say "Errors Detected -- Any Button to Continue". xD
Thanks! It's all making sense now. :)
It's great to see a new vid john, I am still trying to repair my Crazy Kong PCB after it developed graphics problems on the sprites. I have replaced all the ram and the sprite eproms, loads of the logic chips and still cant find the fault. Now I have one of these new IC logic testers from china so I am going to give that a go. As soon as I work out this problem I am going to try and make a video showing what I found along the way.
Awesome! keep us posted.
At last I fixed my board, So happy it's working again.
Pretty sure there is a button cell, 2032that you need to change on the pcb to get rid of the “cmos” error. It is not showing up on screen as there is no red. I have a midway T2 and Rampage World Tour that do the same thing when the battery is low. Also a simple rom reseat might help. Glad to see you back!
Yes... next video. Thanks!
Welcome back where you been
I'm sure you have worked it out by now but the sound board gets power from the main board via that connector you mentioned, details are in the manual!
Well that was kind of unexpected. It's like those old Bugs Bunny cartoons when the power goes out and all you see their eyes.
But this time it's only jon watch that we see.
best ending ever!!
ok i never thought about it untill now but i have to ask, do you just have all these arcade machines here for you and the familly or do you actually have people come here and you just charge them? i had to ask cus it is technically your basement so yeah.
FUCK! i am going crazy wondering how the brisket came out! damn you John!
It was amazing!
Yo! John, what has happened with your popcorn machine? Did you break it?
Like your mancave, #YOUSO80'✌
push any button to continue!
I know this now :)
36:56 :-) John is the best!
37:02
Sound board is not lighting up because you are missing the power wire that goes between the PCB and the sound board. There should be a ribbon cable which you have hooked up and a power wire that I don't see.
I can send you a picture of what the wire looks like if it helps
I’m going to be completely honest, I have no clue what I’m doing. But are there dipswitches on the board that need to be in a certain order? Kind of like clocking a pc motherboard?
Woohoo!!!!
The mini nine pin with the 120v is for a Bill acceptor in case no one told ya yet :)
best ending EVER!!!!!
Good to see a new video. Though I kinda miss a new video each week as they have helped me out greatly since starting my own collection which is at a total of 3 units now. A Super Hang On - Mini Ride, Stern Tutankham, and a old 80's barcade with a 13 inch G07 monitor that Ive got setup with a Williams multi-cade.
So, John Ive got a question. Where on earth would one start if they were trying to find parts for a Super Hang On mini ride cabinet. Ive looked on Ebay, KLOV, Arcade Boneyard, arcadefixit.com and finding parts for the motorcycle assemble are insanely hard to find.
Also by chance are you aware of anyone in the 3d printing business that makes aftermarket parts for arcades and pins? As I figure the only way im going to be able to find a replacement handle bar cover for my Bike is to have someone 3d print me one as the last one I found for sale on KLOV was around 3-4 years back now.
Congrats on the sub count
Thanks!
Fk MKII how did the smoked brisket turn out?!?! Nice ending btw! Blackened is the end hehe
you must confirm "using coindoor coinage" with the Start button
he shd of read the manual... 90's games doesn't seem to be his thing
Would the manual tell me that if I had colors missing I couldn't see "push start to continue?" :)
"Shd of..."? That doesn't make any sense.
if you replace the battery he does not always ask when switching on..
Hey it's a Mortal Kombat 2 you are restoring, you might want to add that 2 to the video title.
FIXED. Thanks. :)
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech fix 17 as well.
No problem! :-)
Kind of get the same feeling. It's just the way he seems to want to get this one done and out of the way. Guess after doing this so much and being busy with other things, it kind of burns you out, huh John?
I do this sorta stuff for a living. There's a lot to factor...spending time and doing a good job on something like, say, crimping and checking continuity to find that a board simply isn't turning on when you finally get to boot it up. Having to deal with more than you need to in order to get what you need done, and taking everything out, then having to put it all back in. Having to find makeshift hardware to do the job so you don't have to order and wait or make an additional trip to the hardware store. Dropping said hardware and having it fall under the deepest and hardest cranny in your workspace. Losing tools and connectors. The list goes on.
This is probably why John took a golf break half-way through, I don't blame him :D
John, I'm going off subject but are you going to be at southern fried expo in 2019?
I'm not sure. I want asked yet.
@@Johnsarcade Ah..gotcha. 2019 will be my first time going. Well, hope your invited again, would love to hear ya speak and meet ya man.
Wow this is becoming an Arcade Odyssey
When will part #19 come out?
Next episode... Hot Wings and Bronco Restoration 🤪🤪😷😷🤘🤘
👍😊
Turning into another journey
Hey John, I have a Crazy Kong in an Original Donkey Kong cabinet, I purchased it this way a few years ago, and I wanted to make it a Donkey Kong, but I’m not knowledgeable enough, to do it. I’m looking to replace this machine, with an Ice Cold Beer machine. I live in Trumbull Connecticut, if your interested.
👍🏻
Missing green and red colors in the monitor, checks if appears yellow, green and red texts, when the system start for first time, this need accept the initial default setting for the first boot
Do you need press any button for continue and watch the demo
1:35:14 "Next week"
See you in September then.
Have you heard about arcade 1up? They look good and are licensed by the original creators of the games.
👍👍👍
see you next year!
Bye!
