Hi,
I'm looking at a Bobby Orr's Power Play in a few days. The current owner says that the game tilted with the up post in the up position, and the ball trapped against it. Now the game won't reset or coin up.
Any ideas?

It’s likely stuck in tilt. Check the plumb bob and the ball tilt and see if those switches are closed.
Quoted from Billc479:It’s likely stuck in tilt. Check the plumb bob and the ball tilt and see if those switches are closed.
Makes sense. I'll check. TY
Update:
I saw the machine, apparently the machine just kinda gave up the ghost in the middle of a ball. Here are the symptoms. No displays, although can see glow. Self test button does nothing. Doesn't coin up.
I can't get into the back box at the moment. Will more than likely have to drill the lock. Based on the above issues, would you suspect MPU? Power supply? Connectors? Just a fuse (hehe)?
TIA
Just a wild guess, but I’m going with a badly corroded MPU since you can’t get in the back box, which means owner never changed the battery.
Second guess is going to be the power supply on the SDB.
With those two guesses and $2, you can get a cup of coffee at McDonalds. Tell them Bill sent ya.

Will do.
I'm trying to get the game going for it's new owner.
It worked for two days, then crapped out in the middle of a ball.
Quoted from BigAl56:First step is to get into the BB. Once there examine the MPU board especially the battery. If you can't find anything obvious post a video of the backbox and boards. Focus on the LED on the MPU flashing on boot. Should flicker and flash 7 times.
Sure, IF I can get into it!
I'll probably bring an MPU from my Speakeasy to verify.
