Hello first time posting here and delving into the world of arcade machines :D.

I've recently been tasked with seeing if its possible to get two outrun 2 cabinets to work and refurbish them. They are in a side by side configuration with the coin box between the two cabinets. I have gotten one to load up to the network hand shake where it is the looking for the second cabinet but unfortunately the second cabinet is displaying error 21 and wont go past that point. On this machine i have tried the GDROM drive from the other cabinet and its power and data cables but to no avail. Does anyone else have any ideas or is it likely that the chihiro unit itself has died?

Now my other issue is that these machines came from an amazon fulfillment warehouse break room via another recycling company and at some point some one has removed the cables linking the VTS board in the coinbox to the machines..... I have searched multiple places looking to see if i can find the connecting cables but there nowhere to be seen. If there aren't any replacement cables my option is to either make up a new cable assuming i can find the correct connectors or solder together what i have to make a working cable. For this i will need the Pin out for the board and male connector that plugs into the back of the cabinet. I will likely mount the VTS board under the seat of the working cabinet as the plan is that if can get one to work it will go into my works break room set up for infinite credits making the conbox surplus to requirements.

If someone has the pin outs or even pictures of the linking cable/cables between the coinbox VTS board and the rear cabinet female connectors i would be very grateful.
 
With the use of a multimeter and a variable power supply i've made a fairly good bit progress working out what wire does what, to the extent ive been able to get into the test/service menu and then into the game itself.

As you can see from the pictures below its a bit of bodge job as im just working it out once i 100% no the pin out ill solder everything up properly :). Also im creating a spreadsheet with the plugs and pin outs that i will make available to anyone that needs it.
