I need some help.

I just got my Power Driver PCB back from repair. I took some pretty detailed pics of where all the connectors go before it left.

When I turned it on after reinstallation, none of the GI came on and the solenoids don't work (basically nothing on the pf works), but the flippers do and the coin door buttons work as well.

I went back and reseated everything again and triple checked everything. Why won't my playfield come to life? How have I screwed this up?

Any help would be appreciated.

I am feeling a lot of 'JOY' right now. Lol

I appreciate the advice on the deep breathes. I think I have sucked all the air out of the room already.

I had some extra fuses so I changed them all out. Still no go.

Hi LTG!
I have reseated all the connectors several times. But I may keep missing the same thing, so here is a pic of my board powered on. The fuses are good as I just changed them all out.

I just wanted to clarify that initially I said my flippers work, but I meant in the sense SC will react to them with speech if I press them, but they will not fire in a game.

I must be missing something so simple.

Yes, it is correct. Gray/Green is on the bottom in position 1.

I just printed out those pages from the manual. I am going to double check I am not missing a connection or if it's the wrong way.

FYI- I did check all the fuses with a DMM, but I was so frustrated I decided to change them all out. I kept all the ones I took out to reuse later.

I will report back.

Thanks!

That's J104. According to the manual, it's not used. And yes, my coin door is closed. Thanks!

OK. I just went through the whole thing matching wire color/connector with location on the Powerboard.

I had to move J123 to J121 and swapped J126 and J125. What is weird is I had taken very detailed pics of every connector location prior to sending it off and that's how they were with the game working before. Nonetheless, I have made the change so that it matches the manual perfectly.

Still no go.

Regarding J133 and J132, the connectors are of different number pins. One is a 6 and one is a 3. I have those in the correct location. J132 is not used according to the manual.

Yes. I have doubled checked the short ribbon cable.

Just the power board was sent out for repair. Safecracker worked great with the exception of the left token dispenser. It was discovered I needed a new TIP36C power transistor (Q67) and some new 1n4004 diodes (D73, D78).

Sorry for my ignorance, but what I am feeling for? Or what is suppose to happen?

THAT WORKED!

I am such an idiot! I probably reseated that 10 times today and I was off everytime.

Thanks everyone for helping me. A million blessings to you!

I can finally sleep peacefully.
