Hello to everyone!! I have this shadow pinball that I'm working on and I've noticed a strange and bad MOD from the previous owner..can anyone help me understanding why they did this and how to restore original settings?? Look at the pictures below!
As you can see there is the original power supply in the back of the cabinet which is connected to all the wires through the big squared connectors BUT there is also another power supply in the middle of the cabinet which has 6 wires connected in this way: 2 go to the coin door, 2 go in the steelbox on the right side (badly linked with adhesive one a square connector), 2 are SOLDERED :O on the power driver board on Tp2 and on a relay position.

Can anyone understand and try to explain this to me? I don't think it was originally conceived this way -_-' do you have shadow pic of how it should be?

Thanks for your answer,

so removing the second power supply and send the power board to repair would be ok?

But what about the steel box near the coindoor and the coindoor itself? How do I substitute the wires that go there?

Hello! I show you better where the cables near the coindoor go! In the coindoor it is splitted within the two "insert coin" and in the steelbox it is in the square connector to the right. What I am supposed to connect there once removed the 2ND power supply? I was also wondering where do it takes the power If it isn't connected to the power socket??
