With the test EPROM fitted, the PIA outputs and indicator LED stay still.
Leon test EPROM does not run: check the 6808 and its pins
Cause: A bad 6808 CPU or socket, or a missing basic signal at U15.
Checks
- Swap in a 6808 known to work, then check the socket.
- With a meter: U15 pins 2, 3, 8, 35 and 40 should be positive, around 4 V.
- Pins 39 (clock), 4 (IRQ), 5 (VMA) and 37 (E) should read about 2 to 3 V.
Fix
- Repair the socket or the circuit feeding the missing signal.
