    Just brought home a TMNT. Everything works but the two apron lights that shine up into the playfield are not coming on. All other GI and Flashers work perfectly. All node boards check out.

    Where do I begin troubleshooting?

    Thanks in advance!

    Those two are treated as flashers.

    Have you checked the Tech Alerts under Diagnostics? It's possible that the MPU detected something wrong and disabled them as a precaution.

    I went through the flasher test. Every flasher that was listed flashed. What number are the apron ones?

    Nothing shows under Tech Alerts.

    I also reseated CN15. I am at a loss why this is happening.

    Interesting! I guess it's different from machine to machine. On my Black Knight:SOR, they are under flashers and both of them are tied to the same flasher circuit.

    Just downloaded the manual of TMNT and they are part of the GI string #152 (13 white LEDs). Most likely you have a break in the line at the arch.

    Bingo!

    Thanks a ton!
