Austin Powers
Stern, 2001Hi. Very new to pinball machine owning, tech unsavvy. Machine has been working very well since purchased well refurbished 6 months ago. Now, moved it gently 20 feet today. Then after playing for a while, noticed the dotmatrix display not working. Turning it on and off several times, "Display Version A2.01" flashed again and again. Then I opened the back box, jiggled a few things, took the dotmatrix display down and then back up. Now blank screen again.
Any ideas what I may have done?
Quoted from LTG:Turn it off. Go over all the connectors in the head and to DMD. Be sure all are on and pushed on tight.
LTG : )
Especially the ribbon cables. But drop the DMD in the speaker panel again and push all of those connectors on tight. Then follow those cables back to the boards they connect to and push them all on tight also.
