Hi

My goldeneye suddenly burned the magnet board and I replaced all capacitors, TIP 36C , TIP 32, 150 OHMS resistor, (2)diodes (D14) in parallel all from the magnet 1's side. After that I turned the machine on again and the magnet from mag2 is ok ( it holds and release the ball back to the playfield) but when I tried to test the satelite magnet it holded the ball during multiball and did not released it and, of course the transistors from mag 1 burned again.

Any clues?

Thanks

Hi

Thanks for your reply

The pic is OK, I changed the TIP 32c and 36c and the zeners and the 150ohm 5w resistor that was burned and the 36C keeps burning even when I change the coil. Now I am going to change all transistors, all diodes to see what happens. I also checked the 60V line and replaced the capacitors of the Power board.
When I run the satelite test it senses the ball, peeks it but the resistor and the tip36c begins to heat too much and the tip36c gets shorted. Nuts!

After change the components I will try again and let you know

Any suggestion, will be welcome

I was, indeed, begining to think about that possibility.. I think it would be better buy some TIP 36C from other source.

Thanks
