The owner of this PET said it used to work though, so I was assuming that the jumper were correct. I will also change the timing resistor and tantalum capacitor on the 555 reset circuit, I've noticed the reset signal isn't very well behaved (it resets randomly and sometimes doesn't release the reset line). I think the tantalum capacitor is shorting randomly to ground or the 1M resistor is intermittent. Old hardware sometimes has lots of faults.
