I picked up a nice Game Show this weekend for a great price. Everything works great, except many lights are no working. The backglass lights, one that light up the ‘Applause’ sign, and all under-playfield insert lights work fine. The problem is all the above the playfield lights are out (the ones in the pop bumpers, under all the plastics and slingshots, and the ones in the back that make up the marque effect). Any idea on what is causing this and a fix? Blown fuse or specific chip out?

It's strange that on mine, all the lower playfield lights work, but all the above playfield are out. I'll have my regular service tech come out next week and will post what he does to correct it. He hasn't been stumped yet.

By the way, what a super fun game! I've played it a few times on location and always thought it was quirky and the bright colors made it something I wanted. I'm discovering in the first 24 hours of owning it that while simple, it's actually a pretty deep game with lots to shoot for and has good strategy. So far I'm very happy and know I'll love it once I get the lighting issue resolved and deck it out in full LED. As a kid of the 80's who spent countless hours watching the daytime game shows, it brings back fun memories. Sale of the Century!

I got the entire game fully -LED'd and it looks great. I haven't been able to figure out how to get the back chaser bulbs going yet. The game is a bit dark, so I ordered some flex LED bulbs today. I'm hoping I can angle them down by the flippers to shoot up into the center area of the playfield.

I really like this game. It's simple, but has challenging elements that make me keep coming back to it.
