I'm working on a recently picked up Laser Ball - the top two pop bumper lamps and all inlane lamps don't work. Bulbs tested good, so it's not that, and I get no voltage on any of the sockets that don't light up. My assumption is that power is going into that circuit from the bottom pop bumper and out to the others (and my problem is in one of them, but that's such a pain to tear into that I haven't messed with it yet. Before I start diving in, am I right in thinking it's probably the wiring on the pops?

I was hoping it would be that simple, but I didn't see anything that obvious.. I'm going to give it another look. Seems like it should be something simple like that.

So I did finally find the issue... Broken braided wire, but it was hiding under a damn staple! I didn't see it until I tugged on the wire and it popped out from under the staple. Patched it up and we're good as new!
