picked up a SuperPET

Post by mcopenha »

Hi, i'm new here. I recently picked up a free SuperPET. It's not working unfortunately. I plugged it in, turned it on, and nothing appeared on the screen. Opened it up and things look very clean -- no signs of visible damage. It has all three main circuit boards, and both processors are intact as far as I can tell. I measured 20VAC on the input to the bottom circuit board.

I'd like to see this working but have no clue where to begin with diagnostics. I have access to an old BK Precision scope, a multimeter, and some basic tools. If anyone can point me down a certain path or a good website, I'd really appreciate it.

The PET experts hang out at

http://www.vintage-computer.com/vcforum ... 238183aebe

You can pose your questions there, and they can try to diagnose it for you.

Truly,
