Hello. I've restored my EBD with all new boards, mostly all new connectors - all connections to all boards in the game are new. I keep getting this 2 note alarm tone that is one high note then one low note that goes back and forth like a siren warning alarm then the game stops and machine reboots quickly to 'just flipped on' state. It happens in a couple seconds. It has new rectifier board, etc. Everything is new. Anyone know what is wrong?!! Thanks!

Quoted from chas10e:

"slam-tilt" switch someplace?

No clue? New capacitors on tilt Bob and all transistors on tilts good..

Quoted from chas10e:

I'm guessing there are 2 or 3 slam-tilt switches and one of them is activating, 1 on coin-door , bottom of playfield
could be a pinched wire associated with one.

Thanks for your help. I forgot about the coin door tilt. I checked its transistor and it's good. Nothing appears to be wrong with it at all. I'll have to go over them all again for wiring issues. No clue now. There's a giant red capacitor towards the back of the cabinet inside on the left side, standing in front of it, attached to a small box along the ground wire. I wonder what that is and if it could do this? I'll have to check on that also. Right now, no luck.

Does this happen during a game or while sitting in attract mode?

Happens only during a game.

That's a varistor, has nothing to do with your problem unfortunately.

Thanks. I will look into it.
