Post by: jim7 on November 27, 2019, 11:51:24 AM

Bally 5000 been off for about a year turned it on and this is what I get. I used a clear chip and it said it cleared. Reinstalled the game chip and got the same thing. Anybody got any ideas

Ya, the clear chip will clear the RAM because the 5V logic voltage from the main power supply is used for the clear procedure.
BUT the RAM has no battery voltage to maintain it's contents so when you turn the power off and remove the clear chip the RAM contents get scrambled.
I think your problem will be solved when you install a fresh battery THEN do a clear.
