I'm actually fixing this one. (Firepower) Guy said the window over it in the garage broke. Top of backbox is all fixed now. Those are lichens growing on the rotten plywood. Whole thing reeked of mushrooms. PF actually survived pretty well and some electronics still work. Sent boards out to J.C for repair.
Quoted from Markharris2000:By the time they soldered-in THREE fuses in parrallel, they essentially bypassed the fuse altogether! I am surprised they didn't just stick a 1/4-inch lag bolt in the fuse socket!
It was actually worse than the pic shows. I stuck the bridges fuse back in for the pic and got it in the wrong holder, it was originally in the one on the left where the good 10A fuse is shown. So one fuse was bypassed completely, one with the CF in the middle, and one with a wire soldered across it! The holders we're all misshapen like someone had forced something besides a fuse into then at some point. Scary. I showed it to the owner and explained how this could have destroyed the machine and maybe his house....
Quoted from PinballAir:The fuse on the right with the wire soldered across is in no danger. The current doesnt pass thru the fuse. They joined the wires on the upper terminal
I actually jammed it back in to take the pic and got it in the wrong holder. That one was installed where the good fuse is in the pic, so one was bypassed completely, one was bridged with wire, and the middle was that 3-fuse CF . Scary.
