Pinbot
Williams, 1986Just what the topic says. Often when I push the start button, all displays go blank, no power to coils or lamps, and the game dies. Requires a reboot. Sometimes it will start, and then crash when a ball is lost or a flipper is hit, in this case the music stays on but much quieter - everything else dies.
Obviously it's some kind of power issue, but what should be replaced?
I would recap the power supply and then go from there. It needs new caps after all these years anyway.
Quoted from Brijam:Thanks, I'll try that and report back.
I would wait for others to chime in 
I’m still newish to this board stuff.
