    Hello. I recently purchased a pinbot machine, less than a week ago. Played fine when I tested it and it played fine for the first 2 days. 3 nights ago I was having a particularly great first ball and during play of the ball the back glass displays started flickering, then some of the lights on the playfield as well. Then all the functions stopped..... no flippers, bumpers, etc. It was getting late so I turned it off hoping it was just a glitch that would not happen again. Now I have a few things happening. Turn on the machine and get various messages. "IRQ Failure" or "adjust switch left outlane" or "adjust switch right outlane" and another that never displays completely but best I can make out is "U 26 ROM".

    Sometimes the game starts fine and can play for a while before the flickering and error messages start. Sometimes I can't get the game to start at all

    Usually the music keeps playing through everything

    I tried replacing the three AA batteries in the back glass and this helped for 1 day.... then back to the same thing. I've looked for loose connectors under the play field but can't really see anything

    Give all the gray ribbon cable connectors a firm press. If problem persists, give all socketed chips a firm press. If problem persists, head over to pinwiki for more info.
