First Gottlieb!? That sucker is supremely rare!

Couldn’t figure it out myself. Maybe he didn’t realize what the drain feature was, who knows.
I wish I could help you here but I’m pretty unfamiliar with these ones atm, but following along for the answer!

Also did you end up getting the right fuses? Got out and buy half a dozen because the 8A are pretty standard and you’ll eventually use them.
Might need to blow one or two while troubleshooting. Or you can buy a resettable fuse and clip that in for test purposes!

I agree it sounds like a simple short somewhere, check all the tabs and make sure nothing funky fell into one of them.

Fantastic! I hope to play one someday!
