Intermittent Flame Panel:
How to troubleshoot?
My Flame Panel is on during attract mode, but once I start a game it goes dark. It will come on occasionally for a second or two during the game, although what prompts it to is unclear.
I went into the diagnostics menu and did a "test" on it, but to be honest it's not really a test as much as a simple setting - "Always on" or "Always off." Naturally, I have it set to always on.
I reseated its connector behind the back panel and traced what I believe are its leads back to the playfield 48V core-driver node and reseated it there, too. I also updated the game code. Do I also have to etch a replacement SD card and swap out the OEM card? Is my SD corrupted?
I really don't want to have to replace the driver node for this or the flame panel for that matter. I'm not keen on playing the game without the flames as they add so much to the GI.
Suggestions?
(Thanks for reading my post!)
