Hi all. Super grateful for this knowledge base. I am hoping for suggestions to possibly revive my Mata Hari resto.
After a complete repinning, everything worked normally for a short while. Suddenly the 4 amp fuse blows
and after installing a spare SDB I now have no solenoids except the coin door, the chimes and the knocker.
As a bonus, most of the GI bulbs popped. Sockets on the right and lower side of the playfield read 18.3 VAC. Left side sockets and back box work ok.
Everything else on the machine works. (HV) Displays, scoring, feature lights, game start all work fine...just no playfield solenoids.
I am totally stumped. Have been through the connectors twice and the work checks out. Running Alltek boards with the exception of original the lamp board. I am coming to realize that once you migrate to the new boards, a lot of the testing advice you might find goes out the window.
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!!
