CPS3 Repair

[gmoneyfivetwenty]

My CPS3 has a burnt resistor K DA4. The game will start sometimes but quickly faults and some times it wont start at all. Does anyone repair these systems? Thank You

I think we can call this one fixed, I let it run for over an hour now and still going strong.

Pics of the repair in case that link doesn't work for some.

It was supposed to be a burnt resistor which in reality turned out to be a switching diode. I took it from a parts board, but upon visual inspection I found bent pins on the ppu. Some were touching and loose. I straightened and reflowed as best as I could.

I took some direct captures of the game that was already programmed there 2nd impact after the fix, then I programmed 3S just to test further.

That’s awesome. Thanks. You don’t happen to have a spare case do you? How much do I owe you?
