I swapped out the power supply behind the reels.  Same results.  Upper monitor not turning on and bv didn't cycle.   Any other ideas for me to try? Thanks

I think we are down to CPU or backplane.
If you remove the CPU the BV cycles and the top box boots?

When I remove the CPU the top monitor boots up but I never got the bv to cycle.   There is some corrosion were the varta battery was.

Do you know of anyone who can inspect/repair the 1270 board or have a replacement one I can purchase for the Frog Prince?

Place a WTB in the classifieds here.
The BV should cycle without the MPU installed

The BV should cycle without the MPU installed

To add on to what Qbert (Rich) said about the BV
That is correct, without the board installed in your S2000 your machine should light up and cycle the BV.  If your BV doesn't cycle, then check it by putting a known working one in and see if it cycles. If it still doesn't cycle, then your issue is either the Backplane Board or the Wiring to the BV. 
so you may or may not have a bad MPU, it could be the backplane board, some wiring hooked up incorrectly, or a plus is not seated in correctly. I hope this helps you figure this problem out.

Thank you for info! We're is the backpane board located? The game was working great for a week and then it was like a switch.

Backplane is what the CPU plugs into.

 Update on the frog prince.  I installed a new BV.  Now with the mpu removed the BV does cycle like it should.   With the mpu installed the unit still does not come on.   Any thoughts?  Thanks Matt

80% probably the MPU,
15% backplane
5% something else

I installed a new 1270 board from Midwest slots, now everything comes on as it should.  I plugged the keyboard in and set the date and time.   I saved the optimized default settings.  I can't seem to get past the upper monitor saying. " initializing, please wait"

What does the VFD on the bottom say?
If it says waiting for video display then there is now a communication problem between the top box and the mpu.
.
On the back of the top box the plug with 4 mostly grey wires, make sure it is connected.
Those wires make their way to the communication board located at the bottom center back of the cabinet.
Make sure it is plugged in. This is the same location where a TITO would plug in.
From that center board a flat ribbon cable is plugged in and the the ribbon cable plugs into the backplane  board.  Make sure all connections are good. Unplug and reseat them. If they are all good the small communication board or the backplane board.
Almost sounds like your machine suffered an electrical surge.

Perfect!
With the door open turn the jackpot key 3 or 4 times.
It should then say press the reset button for about 6 seconds and close the door.
It may do this twice follow the directions on the VFD and turn the jackpot key.
