so when i got the game all the GI was out i repined some connectors and got 90% of the GI to work.

now before i repined this last one i could get 100% of the back glass to light up if i wiggled and pulled on the wires.

i repinned and now half of the back glass lights work the other half don't and no matter what i do i can't get them to light up.

Players left is out.

any ideas what could be wrong. i have repined several times and even took the wires out of the pins and twisted them together and still no luck.

what boards would drive the left back glass and what on the boards so i can look into a board issue. also what connectors would have something to do with this.

thanks

I'd grab a meter and see where you are losing power. At least narrow it down.

While you repined, you may have lost through or across board continuity.

You need to at least reflow the header pins on J5 of the marshmallow roasting board, the big board below the power Supply board. Those pins often develop cold solder joints. J5 feeds the back glass lamps.

Thank you so much!

I had no idea about J5 I didn't know it had to do with the GI.

Thanks again! We're 100% now!
