I've been trying to get a Dolly Parton working that was in pretty bad shape. The Solenoid and MPU boards were replaced with Alltek ones (they are awesome, by the way!) and the Power board was replaced with a rottendog. That has gotten it to the point where the lights and displays function but now I can't get 43V power to the playfield.
On the old power board, an orange wire was soldered right to it (in between J1 and J2) which I think could have been for 43V, but the orange wires I found on the playfield appeared to be for GI, so I didn't want to guess. The knocker works but it's the only solenoid that seems to (and it is charged with 43V) and it isn't on the playfield.
Finally, F1 on the Rottendog power board blew while I was testing something with my voltmeter (or I think anyway). I didn't have a 10A fuse to replace it, but that was for 5.4V? That wouldn't have anything to do with the solenoids would it? I'm not entirely sure what that is even for since the MPU board is definitely working with the 5V from the solenoid board.
Anyone have any thoughts given all that? I spent all day yesterday in a nasty ole bar trying to get this fixed. It's SOOO close but yet so far :/
