Sound 16 does not play when the sound board is tested.

Haunted House: no sound 16 in the sound test

Cause: A break somewhere along the sound 16 path, which uses the DS3/LD4 lamp signals.

Checks

  • CPU board: lamp control chips Z32 (7417) and Z34 (7404).
  • Connector A1J4 between CPU and driver board.
  • Driver board: Z3 (74175), then transistor Q10 (MPS-A13).
  • Driver board connector A3J2 pin 9, then A12J4/P4 pin 6, then A6J1 at the sound/speech board.

Fix

  • Replace the failed chip or transistor, or repair the bad connector.
