I just acquired a fireball home edition, and the 100 K panel segment is dark (won’t show anything). All the other display segments work, and everything else in the game works great.

This is my first machine and I am quite new to this. Any thoughts on where to look first? The game came with all the manuals, but I can’t determine where to start in order to diagnose.

Thanks in advance.

There may be some info over at pinwiki. Those home models aren't very popular and have some already can't-get-no-more components, so not a great deal of effort has gone into making repair guides/pages.

Page 7 starts discussion on the display. By what I read, probably best to check the UN2074B first

Thanks @cody_chunn, KenLayton and @pinballmaniac40. I’ll digest and attempt to diagnose. This is a huge help in getting a nube started
