Royal Rumble (WWF)
Data East, 1994We drilled out the cabinet lock since the key was lost. When we turned the machine back on, the ball eject in the trough and flashers stopped functioning. The lower drop targets also will not reset however the top drop targets work as well as the slings. I am going to try to swap fuses when they come in. I have attached of a picture of the leds on the board, one is not lit. I am not sure if it is supposed to be of not. Any ideas? Thanks

Thanks for checking on it, fuses will be here Monday, hopefully that fixes it.
Quoted from chad:Ues that is the knocker coil. You need the bracket assembly.
I don't think this is causing my drop targets and ball trough issues but I will fix it. I have replaced all fuses and my issues remain.
Sounds like the coin door interlock switch is either open or closed when it should be closed or open or it just needs to be replaced. Or a wire fell off of it or is loose. WWFRR has that double interlock switch and I think one part of the switch comes out and the door pushes it in and the other switch can go in or be pulled out. Try to pull or push it in and try different combinations. I forgot the exact combo of how it should be.

Can this be the case if the interlock message shows up only when the door is open?
Quoted from chad:Make sure the tab that pushes them (switches) in is adjusted properly coin door.
I will mess with the interlock tomorrow. Here is a pic of it from today.

With WWFRR I definitely went to start a game a few times after working on it and the ball wouldn't eject because I messed with the interlock switches and didn't put them back. So the message doesn't have to be up to start a game or see attract mode.
I worked on it for awhile today. Re-soldered a bunch of cracked fuse holders on flipper boards, installed a new knocker, and replaced a bunch of fuses in back box.
I can play a full game if I feed the ball to the plunger. The only things not working are the DEAD drop targets (they don't reset), knocker on bottom of cabinet and the coil that shoots the ball up. I replaced either F6 or F7 (the one that isn't even related to coils) and it did shoot the ball up once then stopped working. The next time I replaced the fuse (even though it still looked good) it would not work again.
I'm thinking maybe I need to adjust those little clip sensors in the ball trough, that is something that could have caused it to work when I lifted and lowered play field.
Quoted from DarthRaider:Any luck with this? Im having the flashers and coils issue. Also blowing fuse f6.
Have you figured it out?
This doesn’t sound like the interlock button. The interlock button on WWF is the second lower switch (away from door) on the service controls. It has 3 phases. On (pulled out) - everything works. Off (pushed in) - the flippers and ball launch do not work (all solenoids really). And pushed in - on, but it’s temporary because it’s on a spring so you’d need to hold it in for it to stay on (this must be for briefly testing your work before turning power off again to solenoids to continue work).

I’m sure you resolved this long ago, but per my post: this machine is hacked to turn solenoids on by constantly pressing the interlock button. This is because whoever worked on it did not realize you can simply PULL THE BUTTON OUT. This also will run power to solenoids and does not require the hack job of extending lever on the door.
