Hello everyone!
I'm a REAL newbie. I just purchased my first EM, a Captain Fantastic. It plays great, but the Ball In Play lights don't light up. I want to change bulbs, but as they're in those little recesses, I'm sure you all have a trick to getting them out.

I see there are 3 fuses on the left side of the cabinet...do those just pull straight out? I tried, but they're in there good. Also, I saw in another post that there's a 4th fuse located by a 'service outlet.' Where is that on the machine?

Thanks in advance,
Chris

Thanks, Bill! I do have the original manual, just haven't read through it yet.

Anyone have a quick answer to my questions?

I did see a tool out there called the Mill Tool. Looks pretty cool and that it would make extracting those bulbs easier.

Also, is there a test mode that lights up all the bulbs so I can see which ones are out?

Thanks

Thanks for the reply! So where do I find the ball count unit? Is it on the board behind the row of lights? And what is a DMM? See, I told you I was a newbie! hehe
