On my LOTR - the front right flasher is stuck on. It looks like all the other flashers are working ok.
I took the bulb out, and the game plays fine. Any ideas what I could check, or is this a board issue?

Likely the transistor on the board is bad/shorted.
It should be transistor Q28.

Very common in LOTR, be glad you caught it before the plastics melted. As DCFan mentioned bad transistor on the driver board.

Got it fixed by a friend, it was the transistor on the bottom right set. While he was at it...added the NVRAM on the MPU, and a new connector for the coils.
Now on to Valinor! Good luck Fred70......
