Invader 2 Problem Solved #3, Popping Sound Then LED Flickers

Pain

Well at least my guys can fix this thing, Mike Rubano and Fernando cured the beast once again of crappy capacitors.

Read my other thread about turning off after 40 minutes. My 3rd problem with the Invader 2 started after about 20 hours of playing from that repair, you'd play about 2 minutes, hear a popping sound and the LED would flash 3 times saying tube 3 was bad. I replaced the tube and then it would flash that the 4th tube was bad. I replaced 4th power tube and nothing changed, time for the electronic duo to rescue it.

Long story short, 2 tiny capacitors were bad, they replaced all 8 and we're good after 3 hours of playing.

If you need their info hit me up, Fernando is going to start taking in amps soon and the both of them work on it so you get 2 killer techs at once. Fernando is new school and Mike is old school electronics techs, best of both worlds.
