My TAF on power up test results- row 4 gnd short, row 7 gnd short. I have checked connections, all seems good, all solenoids test good. Has anybody encountered this? Could it be u-18 & u-19 on Cpu board? Any help would be appreciated.

Great... the row 4 problem is on the board then... row 7 is in the wiring!

Quoted from Pacer:

Row 4 is on the board. Row 7 may be on the board. Start by fixing the board. U18 and u19 are your row chips but I've even seen a bad u20 cause this. Any of those socketed? You may need help of someone that can fix boards or you can buy wpc CPU boards new.

ULN2803 should be changed.

U20 often fails and results in these error messages.
