Bram Stoker's Dracula
Williams, 1993I found a ripped wire (all green) at the left of the coin door (see pic). I followed it and it ends near the volume/test buttons, attached to the cabined with a screw (green wire on the left side of the picture). Tested for continuity: positive. Is it mass, right?
Where should the ripped end connect?
It's a ground wire and judging by the shoddy crimp job on the connector on the coin door it's been replaced before. Hunt around for a ground connection with no wire in it. Maybe inside the Test Mode Function housing?
No errors, all works great. Just seen that wire, maybe its been like that for a long time.
The two ends of the cable are respectively on the left (ripped side) and on the right of the coin door.
While it should be a ground wire, I've seen enough squirrley stuff done to pinball machines that I wouldn't just trust that. I'd snip the lead off and leave it, suspect it if you have a problem in the area later.
Quoted from Luppin:No errors, all works great. Just seen that wire, maybe its been like that for a long time.
The two ends of the cable are respectively on the left (ripped side) and on the right of the coin door.
