Bad bulb ? Bad socket ? No continuity of wires from socket to board ?

I would think a bad transistor would lock the light on.

Quoted from GPS:

Anyone know if this board can be purchased new?

Got a part number ?

Google - pinball - part number - hit search.

Apparently not. This guy made one :

I had a socket that was in backwards. Who knows what kind of issues that could have injected.

Two wires and no diode. Backwards or forwards shouldn't matter.

I think it did Lloyd

I'd be curious how it might have. Unless facing a different direction shorted to something else.

Otherwise you have DC light bulbs. In a socket. Power goes through one wire - through the bulb in a socket - and out the other wire and the bulb lights. Swap the wire or socket around, and you didn't change anything. Power goes through the wire - through the bulb in the socket - and out the other wire and the bulb lights. Since this is DC and no polarity involved. Electricity doesn't know which way the socket faces.
