Wanted WPC MPU Board

[Jason Catrine]

Hi all,

Before I go buying a modern equivalent like the Pinsound one, does anyone one have an original WPC MPU for sale (part number A-12742).

Or am I better getting the pinsound version rather than an original board anyway? Feel free to add comments below if you think the pinsound one is better, or even recommend another one.

Thanks,
Jason.

I like to keep original boards when possible, how bad is yours?

Someone has repaired it previously and it worked for a while (so I've been told) but is now not allowing you to press start or coin door buttons etc. You can see the corrosion in the pic below....

Yeah the rot travels! could still be fixable more likely some damaged tracks under some of the chips! Where in Scotland are you?

Ayrshire. Just south of Kilmarnock.

Ok reason I asked was I repaired one a while ago but never machine tested it but your too far away from me to try it! Can't get near mine at the moment sorry

I could always build you a slightly-more-expensive-but-much-better-quality-Dumbass-one if you wanted??? Based on the originals and brand spanking new

Depending how bad your is I could repair it for you, if I get a chance I will test the spare I have on my Dr Who

Edit just seen the picture, all those components need replaced along with the header pins and the chips above all that!
