MM8-EJ
Adresses ending on xxx4 or xxx5 all return zero data, so something is wrong in the adress decoding part or in the stack itself. checking continuity on the X-Y lines of the stack is the first thing to check.
a test with our DSlogic analyzer reveiled a broken 7442 on position E59 and replacing the chip with a spare did the job.
That was easy...
