    Adjusting pop bumper leaf switches on my afm.
    Didn't turn the power off.
    Made a short..
    Fried the cpu.
    This is about 3 years ago..
    Took a year before I ordered a replacement cpu.
    Took a few months before I installed it.
    Then found out the security chip was fried too.
    Took a few months to order one.
    Cpu booted but didn't all work.
    Last week finally started to work on that game again.
    Scoop coil works intermittent.
    Replaced the coil.
    Replaced the connector near the coil.
    Still works intermittent and usually better when the playfield is up.
    So now we're 3 years later and my next step is to replace the wire from the backbox to the coil..
