Got an issue with my Gottlieb Genesis. The #3 light by the drop targets no longer works. Worked before we cleaned and waxed the playfield. We changed every light bulb top and bottom just to make sure we had good bulbs. Wire looks soldered to the contact good and the ground is soldered good as well... Don't look like any cold solder joints. When i have all the lights on before starting a game I can make a connection with a different light bulbs wire and it comes on. So seems to me like there isn't power getting to the bulb where the wire is soldered on. Any help will be appreciated. I'm at work tonight and won't be able to do anything suggested right away.

I will check that when I get home. I'll look at the wiring schematics and see where that wire goes. I believe it goea from that light to the the main control board. I looked around the schematics but didn't look real close.

Think I might have narrowed it down to either the transistor or resistor on the control board. Checked for continuity from the bulb socket to the pin on the plug that goes into the board. Have some on order.

Now having issues with some random things going off and a coil being stuck on while it is powered on. Started a different thread for that issue.

Issue solved. It was the transistor on the control board(A3) in position Q12. Hope this thread helps anyone else if they are having issues with one or two bulbs on a system 80. I did notice that while going through the schematics that lamp L11 is resistor R12 and transistor Q12, lamp L12 is R13 and Q13, ect. That info may help someone pinpoint which resistor or transistor they need to check if they have an issue.

I fixed this issue in another thread. Was just a matter of unplugging the plug I tested on the control board and plugging it back in. Human error. Might be re-pinning at a later date just to thwart later issues.
