The game is fairly new to me. The pop bumper work from the test menu, but not from the play field. So far I have for signal at the switch then follow bad to pwb j and i have a switching signal their also. what now? Is the problem at the pwb J ? Thanks Chris
Do they fire at all manually? There is an adjustment that can be made underneath. It's probably not making good contact. There is a little spoon underneath that can be cleaned also.
Go into switch test and see if the pop bumper switches are registering. If none of them are working I would check for a broken wire. Right and left pop bumpers are both in column 4 (grn-yel wire). The wire can also be broken at the switch prior to the pop bumpers.
Yes they fire from the test menu. I did the edge test and they do not register. I have already checked for a broken wire at the board it is good. I checked the resistance from green and yellow wire to the white and orange at the main board and you can see it trip so i think that rules out a broken wire. What do i do next? Thanks Chris
Quoted from bankmansam:I have already checked for a broken wire at the board it is good.
You need to check for a broken wire under the playfield around the pops.
Sounds like you just need to clean the contacts and adjust the switch. There is a white plastic spoon that needs to be centers on the stinger that come down from the pop bumpers.
Assuming there aren't any broken wires.
To clean contacts use a business card. Pinch the card between the contacts and pull the card out. (Do this with the machine off)
