Is transformer wiring correct, the commion power is going to transformer but the black power cord wire is going to a 5 a fuse block shouldn’t black cord wire go to transformer, on the transformer their is a vacant spot that says high, machine has been in somebody’s basement and they had no knowledge of machine or history but it does not look like original cord

Checked fuses all good, tried with flipper , I don’t have 110 at transformer

#17 5 years ago

Are the bottom 2 wires the primary voltage 110v

Quoted from Billc479:

Let’s eliminate the cord as the problem. You should see 110vac at the common wire on the transformer and either side of the fuse block.
If the cord is good, follow the wire from the fuse block and see where it goes. Unless you have a sniffer, this will likely be hand over fist following.
Basically, you want to follow the hot wire to see where you lose power.

hey thanks for your help i followed wire to front on machine will send pic i have 11o voltage at this spot

#40 5 years ago

Well I touched this switch lights came on and bells and lovely noise but the score counter, ball knockouts and bells just kept going flippers work bumpers work but machine just keeps going until I take off jumper wires to door switch

Thanks so the door switch wires I should just put together then release

#43 5 years ago

the machine just keeps running i have ordered schematic and lights and rubber, could a contact be stuck close in the reels it wont reset, it only keeps running when i put the black and white door switch wires together the red amd blue wires to coin mechanism doesnt seem to do anything, i am being a bit impatient but i am a nut when i cant figure things out but i will and thanks to this great forum, i read that it could be the reset relay i tried playting with that machine just keeps running and score reels just keep going

#46 5 years ago
Quoted from PSchwisow:

Are all the score reels spinning or do some of them stop at zero?

they just keep spinning

#47 5 years ago
Quoted from Mank:

Have you tried putting the appropriate coin in for a credit?

tried bypassing wire to coin mechanism

#48 5 years ago
Quoted from marioc:

they just keep spinning
