Hi everyone,

My Judge Dredd was working perfectly over the last few weeks.

Of course, I have friends coming over in 2 days so it decides to crap itself.

I noticed the right flippers weren't responding one game. After turning off the game, I turned it on and heard the long BANG of Fuse F104 (Solenoid #9-#16) and Fuse F105 (Solenoid #1-#8) blowing. The glass even had brown burn marks on it!

After changing the fuses, and a few others, I then heard Fuse F112 (Solenoid Secondary) blow! After replacing F112, then Fuses F104 and F105 blow again!

Ahhhhh help me, obviously something is happening with the solenoids! What should I do, what should I check first.

My technician is not cheap ($100 for the first hour) and I've called him more times than I care to admit.

Any help Pinsiders???

Quoted from robertmee:

Bridge Rectifier BR3 blown....test it with a meter

wow thanks Robertmee, dang those bridge rectifiers are rubbish! I already had one replaced due to flashers not working!
