kbj Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 I was cleaning out my vectrex and noticed that C119 and C109 appear to be in the wrong way around? I have a lifted pad and was measuring between the negative on one of the 10,000uF caps and noticed that it was tied to the + side of C109/119 (as marked on the solder side of the power board) - Are the 2 4700uF caps in the wrong way around or is there something I'm missing? (probably, it's been a long night!) Cheers, KbJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the reply! KbJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
