The display +62 V supply measures above 70 V.

+62 V reads over 70 V

Cause: Someone changed the 1N4759 zener on the controller board to push more voltage into a worn-out display, common on games brought back from overseas.

Checks

  • Check the zener at D3 (D2 on WPC-95) is a 1N4759 (62 V).

Fix

  • Fit the correct 1N4759 zener and replace the outgassed display.

High voltage section: work with the game unplugged.
