Hi,

The gate of the castle stopped working today and logically I looked at the documentation to find a fuse. There is one, specified in the manual as 4A 250V Slow Blow (page 1-57)

On the playfield board, I found the gate fuse and took it off, and yes it was blown. But it's a "T2L 250V", which is if I'm not wrong a 2A fuse !!!

Who's right ? The manual and the fuse installed was wrong ? Or the fuse, and in that case the manual is wrong and an erratum must be published ?

Thanks.
Leo.

It's a 4 amp.

Manual is right, and board is marked 4 A.

No idea how the wrong fuse got on your board.

Well, I don't know either, but I'm a bit mad to have to look under the hood so many times with a new game... I'm also mad to see they have used different fuses, I have a set of spare ones but not tiny ones like those !

Lloyd, could you confirm these fuses are the good ones for the gate replacement ?

I'm not familiar with those ones so I dont want to make any mistake.

Williams went to the smaller ones with WPC-95 games.
