All,

I have a 1984 Bally Kings of Steel that had a dead flipper (right) that was about to be fixed right before we moved from OH to TN, but we missed our window of opportunity. The relay is dead.

For the move, I removed the head after disconnecting all the connectors from the cabinet. When I put everything back, somethings just aren't working now. It powers on, but after initial power you usually get that one 'ding' and the scorers light up. This isn't happening now.

There are places nearby, but their initial fee is over $200. I had a great guy in OH that charge per hour and it wasn't any where near this expensive.

Does anybody know anyone near Franklin TN that can possibly help. If not, that's my task after the holidays, learn to fix it myself.

I appreciate any help from anyone.
Matt

Thanks for the help. When it boots, I do only get SIX flashes. Just ordered a new set of fuses for the machine. We'll see if that fixes it. They look fine, but who knows.

So, replacing the F4 fuse worked...it was spent. I replace a couple others also as I just bought a pack for the game. Honestly, some of those are so hard to read I'm not sure what Amp they are, even under a magnifying glass.

Before the move I completely removed the head unit and in doing so, I cut the ground braid. I was told that I could just staple them back together after overlapping an inch or two since I had slack.

Thinking of it, the unit could have been turned on without that being done...maybe that's what caused the fuse to blow?

Oh...and the person in Ohio was a local guy who was a friend of a friend, but also fixed the machines at a local arcade. He was really nice and wish I could find someone like him here.

The next thing is my sound board. When diagnosing my machine in OH, this person pulled out the sound proms and put them back in, but since then I don't have any sound. Need to take a look at that. Plus, eventually I'll have to replace the relay for my flipper..that was the original problem and still not done.
