Any suggestions for a newbie? Haven't used this in a while and it won't eject the balls.

Any advice is appreciated.

Do all the rest of your coils work? If not, its likely a blown fuse. If all your other coils work then its most likely a broken wire on the coil lug.

turn it on first? j/k

What are the symptoms? You start a game and nothing happens?

I will turn it on tonight and check these things and post again. It starts up just doesnt eject a ball, but I will check again to give more specific answers tonight. Thanks for the start guys

You can test all solenoids easily in the test menu. If something doesn't work, it's probably one of the two things mentioned above.

Could use a wipe down while you're at it!

You'll get more and better replies on the Solid State forum. This is Electro Mechanical.

Thanks for the input. Sorry for posting in the wrong section, I will repost in the correct one.

Go into solenoid test. Run the test close the coindoor to activate the high voltage while the test is running. Also run the switch test and see if the switches work in the ball trough.

Check the fuses.

Download the manual from the pinball database if you don't have a hardcopy.
If you are not sure how to use the test menu.

Are the batteries dead and it lost it's settings and it's no longer on free play?
Good luck. Hope it's an easy fix.

Ok, no need to repost. I followed your advice and ultimately found it was fuse F105 that caused the problem. Thanks for your help buffaloatx, FatPanda, and erak, I really appreciate it!
