Odyssey start up problem

(1/2) > >>

Just purchased my second Odyssey machine. My first Odyssey I have had for four years and it is still running strong. This Odyssey sat for some years and to be honest its a nicer looking machine then my working one. The problem with this one is when I power up I only get 4 lights on my main board, but if I turn it off and on quickly I get my 7 lights on the board which is normal but I can not get past the 0000 reading on the door. I have extra boards for my Odyssey but any help would or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Robert Winters site mentions nothing about the 0000 problem. If I can't get it going no problem I will just part it out. I purchased it for next to nothing so no great lost here.

Did you get this problem resolved?  If not make sure the Psycho Board switched are all set correctly.  Make sure you do a "full" reset not just a "partial" reset.  I had this problem in the past and it was a switch in the wrong direction problem.  When the hard drives start wearing out they may take a few power downs and restarts to read the boot info. Might want to use a hard drive you know works when testing the switches.

I got it resolved. I installed a new battery on the board and the machine is working fine.

I see Worldwide gaming just sold a Odyssey yesterday on Ebay for around $390.00 Machine powers up perfectly. It had a touch screen problem but I am sure it is a easy fix. In my opinion somebody got a nice Odyssey!!

I saw that machine when it first was posted.  I have a couple backup touchscreen controllers but didn't need a third Odyssey.  Takes about 20 minutes to replace the controllers.  If the actual glass touchscreen overlay is cracked or badly damaged then the new owner will have a very difficult job locating one.  My first machine was purchased in 2007 and is still working fine.
