Little Chief
Williams, 1975Hi on my 1975 little chief all of a sudden when i start a game it goes through the reset cycle and kicks my ball out but the flippers and playfield does not seem to have any power, no button or bumper is working or adding score. Any ideas why this is happening all of a sudden?
Quoted from Killlometer:the flippers and playfield does not seem to have any power
Inspect and diagnose this circuit with Alligator clip jumper wires, especially the switches on the Game Over, Reset, and Tilt relays

Yes. Use a multimeter in continuity mode to test fuses. It's unusual but they can fail at the end, under the metal caps where you can't see it.
