In sound test one of the sounds (sound 2, used for 100 points) never plays while the others are fine.
One sound missing in sound test (the 100 point sound): failed 7408 on the sound board
Cause: A failed 7408 logic chip on the sound board was blocking that sound select line.
Checks
- Run sound test and note which numbered sound is missing.
- Follow that sound's select line through the board with a logic probe.
Fix
- Replace the 7408. Members have also fixed the same symptom by replacing an LM324 or a CD4013.
