Just picked up a 1975 Bally Flicker that's been in a homeowners basement sitting for at least 20 years. The clips for the four fuses were shot so I replaced them. At power up, the line voltage fuse (8 amp, fast-blo) blows right away. It has a orange wire coming from the transformer and a blue wire is the BUS. I have a good schematic and a DMM. The power cord looks good although the plug has been replaced with a three prong plug. Did these games have a three prong plug originally? Where do you think I should start?

Thanks,

Alan

Russ! My man! I took your advice and took the plug apart. No wires touching, wires in correct position. I went to put it back together and noticed that the metal collar must have been stepped on or something had crushed it, and bent in a metal piece that was hitting a common wire when it was screwed together. Replaced the plug and Voila! It starts! Still has a few switches that don't work, but that's easy.
