Continuing with the cab buildup..

Transformer installed



Boards laid out, getting ready to strip all parts to be replaced as the boards are refurbished. Makes it much easier to clean the boards! All fuses come out, all socketed chips, caps on the sound board, caps on the driver board, language jumpers on the CPU board, what's left of the battery holder on the CPU board, bridges and caps on the driver board etc. The DMD board gets a HV section rebuild to go with the new DMD, as well as caps replaced.



Dot Matrix board stripped



CPU board stripped



Sound board stripped



Power Driver stripped



Some hidden corrosion on the power driver - I don't like this!
