My MMr will not cycle on. I turn it on and the lights come on on the boards. The added speaker lights come on but that is it. The GI light dont come on and the game does not start up? It is completely dark.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Here are a couple of pics.....

a couple of other bits of information.... before it stopped working I was having trouble with the display not working and the left troll not working. I have been having trouble with the display for a little bit where sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. I usually try to push the connectors back in but sometimes it just comes back on it's own. The left troll is something new.

I think it is trying to send a signal to the display when it is green but the display does not show anything. It just flickers..... What is the function of the breakout board with the buttons?

OK - I think that helped. I was able to find a blown fuse on one of the boards below the playfield. I think I read it as T4L250V. I will need to buy those.

Please see pic for reference. It is the fuse without the green light.

Thanks - I was having issues with the left troll so maybe that is the problem.

Well too late, I took the fuse out of the power supply board and it blew right away. The game still didnt do anything before it blew. It looks like there could be a broken wire at the left troll. It is hard to tell as there is an aftermarket troll lights added to the game and I cant figure out how they are hooked up (I am the 2nd owner of the game and did not install them).

Also - i can move the right Troll up and down pretty easily from under the playfield but the left is a lot tighter and harder to push up.

Also shouldn't the GI lights still at least come on ever if that fuse blows? Or is it related?

Appreciate the help - I will take some more photos tomorrow. I do have a multimeter.

CAT-5 cable is ok. I re-checked it. Thanks for the suggestions.

Yep - that is what I am going to do. I went to the hardware store and tried to buy some fuses but no-one had them so ordering them online. So I will have to wait till the weekend to try it again as that is when I can get back to the game. Thanks for everyone's help and will let you know.

OK - unplugged the left troll and put in a new fuse and the fuse did not blow so obviously a problem with that troll. The bigger issue is the game still did not boot up. The watchdog led on the board is still red. Any idea what to do next. I want to get the game to boot up then will work on fixing the troll.

CR8 is flashing green
CR9 is solid red

CR5 Code on the playfield board is flashing green (i dont see that one on the diagram)
CR7 is flashing green

Nope not using clips, they are connectors. It is not the troll eyes but green lights under the trolls.

I am not sure - it doesn't explain it on the diagram. Just says blank normally off.

CR7 flashing on the playfield board that I noted above seems correct

CR8 & CR9 are from the controller board

CR5 and CR7 are from the playfield board

I unplugged J3 & J7 and still the same issue

Unfortunately, that was over my head

I unplugged it, it goes red immediately when I turn it on. Reset button had no impact as nothing happened.

what does the black cable on the top of the controller board do? How do I take that off and reset it? It seems really tight?

I hope not....

What do I do next? Who do I call to fix these new games?

Still nothing - I opened up a ticket with CGC.

I appreciate everyone's help.
