Has anyone else ever seen this happen?

Details:

I bought a DL scoreboard from someone who swears it was working in the cabinet.


I followed the Wiki instructions and made my cable using the pinout chart.

Now I get zeros for lives no matter what while playing the game. When the game is seeking the next scene the lives flicker a bit but return to a zero.

I rechecked my cable 3 times and same result.

I made an entirely new cable and got the same result.

Is there possibly some recent scoreboard code change that may be causing my issue?

I don't know what else to try. All the LEDs are lit its just wrong lives....

Oh and sometimes a 1 or 3 will show in the left most digit of player one...but not always....

I can't figure it out....

Ok,

One by one I disconnected each wire and tapped them to each wire left available from the many unused parallel cable wires.

I eventually hit the right one and low and behold the lives showed properly.

I tried to figure out which wire was previously connected but i lost it in the bundle of unused wires. Basically SB wire #8 needed to properly go to parallel pin #14 but I guess I made the the same mistake two times the same way.

Well at SB wire #9 is credits and SB wire # 8 is lives in case anyone else wants to know.
