The +62 V supply is wrong or missing on a WPC-S or earlier controller board.

+62 V wrong: burnt trace under R9

Cause: The trace from the small bridge BR1 runs underneath R9 (1.8k ohm 5 W). Heat from R9 can burn and break it, out of sight under the resistor.

Checks

  • Check continuity along that trace, lifting R9 if needed.

Fix

  • Repair the trace with a jumper and remount R9 slightly above the board.

High voltage section: work with the game unplugged.
