You need 7 beeps to have a fully booted game. If you go to Pinwiki.com and check there for the how to process with the beeps.

Hey everyone. I just got my Lightning back and did all the board work and it boots and plays. I’m having a weird issue though that wasn’t there before I stored it. When I turn the switch to turn the game on sometimes it doesn’t boot it will make a weird noise or say a quick word from the speech or a scratching sound then I just turn off and on a couple times and then the beep boot sequence starts. Anyone run into this before? Also when it was stored in the garage a mouse got in the head and chewed and ate half of the paper with the Switch assignments. I can’t find it online. Does anyone have a picture they can send or the ability to scan theirs and email it to me? Thanks in advance. Love this game!

Quoted from leothelowe:Manual has some switch assignments. Don't know what you would be looking for but here is the shortcut.

If you look in the first picture with the back box door open on the lower right side right under the power supply is a piece of paper with dip switch settings etc. Mine was mint before a mouse eating a bunch of it when it was stored in the garage for one winter. That is what I’m looking for.

Quoted from LOTR_breath:Just joined the club. She's a project for sure but is mostly complete. Several coils missing, drop targets missing, one drop target mech in pieces, battery puked on the MPU but doesn't look too bad. Has the Blue Ski Jumps for inserts, LOL. Looking forward to getting it up and running.
Bay78, I can get you a hi res picture of those papers in the backbox. Could be a little while though before I can tear into this thing.
Thank you very much! I’m looking forward to it. My clear coated playfield will be going back in soon.
