Well after 10+ in the hobby I might actually use this weekend to try and do something arcade tech related. I have a little old cabaret cab (Century at a guess), so much of the wiring in side has been pulled/cut/broken, I think I just need to start afresh with it all. The plan for the cab is for it to be a spinner cabinet with a jamma set up. Mainly for Arkanoid 1 & 2. I have an Arkanoid to Jamma adapter already.

Are there any guides out there on how to Jamma a cabinet.

Cheers

Ben

If the existing harness has been hacked up, and you want to wire it for jamma, I would personally just buy a full new jamma harness and wire the cabinet up from scratch again

Problem with that is the ones on ebay are crap - the wire is really thin. At the very least all the power leads will need replacing with decent gauge wire before they're any good.
