    Working on a Pinbot and all of the solenoids stopped working. Fuse is fine, fuse holder is fine, reflowed every connector on the power driver and Power Supply. No luck! The only thing I think it may be is a failing bridge rectifier? It worked for a second then quit shortly after. Any ideas? Could it be that bridge? How can I properly test? Thanks!

    You have solenoid power leaving a board somewhere, easy to check with a meter if the board is the issue or not.

    Do you think the bridge rectifier could cause both the A side and C side of solenoids to go out? Thanks!

    If one side went open, yes.

    Don't just start replacing stuff. Try and figure out what needs replacing or fixing.
