Red light blinking on Board. No expert but I am guessing the pictures tell a tale. Is this just a whole board replacement needed ? any suggestions on where to find one ?

okay....I looked at your pictures a little more closely.
It does appear that somehow plastic laid down and got melted onto the MPU circuit board.
Plastic doesn't really conduct electricity but sometimes gets static electricity on the outside of it.

I would use some sort of tweezers and peel off the plastic.
Be careful though, we don't want you to scratch the tiny etched electrical traces on the surface of the circuit board......just get the plastic only.
I think it may not matter if you get it ALL off but just the bigger pieces.

I wonder how that happened because an MPU board its in a machine vertically?

Is your machine a bartop type of machine?
Can you give us some history of this machine.
Has it worked previously?
Also, a red LED blinking on the front of the MPU means something is wrong usually software-wise.
Some of your chips look like home made copies.
Did you perhaps fold a leg underneath the body of a chip device in a socket on the 3902 MPU??

Neg,
Here's the picture of your board that you sent to me.

Maybe the guys will spot something on it.

I wish you would of had it in a higher resolution so we could zoom in on it better.

From what I see, you have a lotta copied software on it.

It's very possible one of those chips went bad giving you a pixelated LCD picture.
Can you tell us what game is installed on the MPU?

It's GK4.0 assuming the labels are correct.  If you think the software is the problem yank it all out and put in Key 22 or 40.  Put it in the machine and if it boots to the keychip menu then it may indeed be the software, it it doesn't then something else is wrong with the MPU.
