Hey guys, I just joined the Meteor club. Picked up a project game with replacement boards, playfield, and backglass. Eager to add the 2021 code!
The one problem I'm having is ALL GI are out, both playfield and backbox. This is my first classic Stern, so I'm not really sure where to go from here.
I believe all the GI runs through the little rectifier board by the coinbox, but not sure how to go about troubleshooting from there.
Quoted from Robotworkshop:Start start with that rectifier board and the connectors going to it. Have any of the connector housings turned brown?
No, the connectors look good.
Quoted from DickHamill:Check the fuse F5 on the rectifier board next. If that's bad, it should be replaced with a 20A fast blow fuse. If F5 is good, check TP4 on the rectifier and verify that you have about 7.3VAC.
Thanks for that, it was a flakey fuse holder on F5. Fixed that and now I have light!
