Hi all, so for the last year I have been restoring a completely trashed Mousing Around. I believe I have it about 95% complete but one issue still haunts me.

I am getting no power to the flash bulbs (orange wire) that trace all the way back to the auxiliary power board. Connector J11, Pin 1. It reads less than a volt. All solder points on the auxiliary board have been reflowed, and I have replaced all diodes and transistors (tip36c). I have also replaced pins on interconnect board.

My question is, I have an open space on J11, pin 8 that is registering 39v. Is it completely out of the question to run the flash bulbs from here?

My concern is the AC relay.

Anyone ever try this?

Thanks all, looking forward to getting this old girl alive again!
