I was hoping someone could help me on a new issue I’m experiencing. At random times during gameplay the spotlights cut out and the flippers stop working. Inserts and back box stay operational. Once the ball that was in play drains, the game responds by turning spotlights back on and posting something on the back box screen, like end-of-ball bonus, or mystery award. I shared two youtube video links of two occurrences below. Any ideas on what’s wrong?
Quoted from LTG:I'd reseat ball trough opto boards, and to the opto driver board, and to I/O board in the head.
Sounds like 12 volts drops, effecting spot lights and optos in ball trough, so I'd reseat 12 volts connectors in back box too.
LTG : )
Thanks. I’m a newbie (first pin) so I’ll have to look on youtube for videos on how to “reseat” circuit boards but at least I have a idea of what to try.
Quoted from GnarLee:By reset I think LTG means to unplug the connector on the boards he mentioned and then plug them back in. This should be done with the game off.
Oh cool, thanks.
Quoted from PinMonk:If reseating doesn't take care of the problem, go to the system menu, tests, switches, skip the first screen to bring up the switch matrix screen. With the white post inside left just inside the coin door frame pulled out (so flippers have power), and flip the flippers aggressively and smack the playfield with the palm of your hand and see if you can get the GI to go out and see of a bank of switches goes off on the test screen.
Awesome, thank you too! It’ll help now having some more options to tackle the problem. I appreciate the help from everyone.
