The other day I put a remote battery holder on my game and then installed the board back in the game. I was in a hurry to move stuff around so I never tried to fire it up until last night. Well when I flip the game on everything lights up like it should, game says "back in action" or whatever the repeat start phrase is, and then EVERYTHING shuts off and I can hear what sounds like an electrical hum. I tried turning it on/off 3-4 times during the night and same thing each time.

Before I did the battery relocation the game worked except for an occasional dmd issue. So anyone know where to start? Can the remote battery pack be causing this if the wires aren't soldered in real good? Note: I did like pinrepairs guide did and got the 4-slot battery holder and put a diode across the end.

No I didn't open the coin door as I figured it would just reset itself somehow.

So just open the door and then flip the game on? Do I need to push any of the test buttons?

Sweet thanks Buk!

Thanks Buk the coin door thing did the trick!

Now that it's been moved I have switches that need readjusting, 3 drop targets not resetting, and some other typical crap! Never ending battle with these things.

While I was doing the battery relocation I reseated all of the dmd cables and nice to say it came right up last night also so hopefully that fixed the issue.
