    Hello peeps. Need help with a Captain Fantastic. Don't have much experience with the older EM machines. I was able to successfully bring this machine back from the dead. It was completely dead upon power activation. Found the playfield disconnects not seated all the way down, a broken 50v fuse holder with the associated blown fuse, and the coin door disconnects not seated as well. Now the machine fully lights up and appears to be functioning normally...until you add credits or start a game. Then this happens...

    Any help would be appreciated because I've gone over everything with a fine-toothed comb and can't see anything more obvious that what I've already found. I'm a bit out of my league on this one. All my expertise is on 1990+ machines. Thanks - Mike.

    I removed the sling rubbers and the game appears to run properly now. Got a handful of switches that aren't working and need cleaning/adjusting, including the slings, but otherwise the machine is working fine now.
