Hello everyone!
I had something interesting happen with my Atomiswave today, it's giving me a "coin error" everytime I hook it up in my Vewlix.
It's worked fine for the past 7 months and I haven't changed any wiring to the jamma harness.
I then hook it up to my supergun and it boots no issue but here is the catch, no buttons are working besides start and coin.
I have read that others recommend removing the Zd4 TVS diode and say it works.

I haven't gone that far yet but may just end up doing so... I am not fond of removing security measures that were put in place by design.
Does anyone have a suggestion to fix this issue without having to undo the security measures or peal away the pcb from the heat sink? (Yeah... Not my first circus with the AW, I must be a glutton for punishment)
Just stange how it would crap out randomly.
Any help would be appreciated!
The link above seemed to provide a link to digikey but the poster seemed unsure which diode to purchase.
Thanks!
Ps. I have a jamma lock chip on my harness and I write "component side" on all my Jamma harnesses so it wasn't put in upside-down.
Just read others had this issue due to that prob
