Parts for converting an export Data East or Sega game to 120 V
You need a .093" Molex pin extractor, a 3-prong 120 V plug, an 8 A slow-blow line fuse and a 130 V MOV. Games from 206 to 230 V countries also need two female .093" Molex pins (02-09-1119), a crimper and 3 inches of 18 gauge wire; games from 100 V Japan only need wires moved. Non-English games also need new display ROMs, and normally a new CPU ROM.
Line voltage is present in the power box, line cord and transformer wiring; unplug the game before working there.
