Each time I turn on my Tri Zone, the F2 solenoid fuse blows.
Here is what I have done so far:
1. Replaced driver board with new interconnect
2. Replaced drop target coils (x4)
3. Replaced ball release coil
4. Replaced eject hole coil
5. Replaced credit knocker coil
6. Cut power (red) wire to coin lockout coil
Here is what I have NOT done:
1. Replaced jet (pop) bumper coil (x3) - appear to be good - no burnt wire - free movement through coil
2. Replaced kicker coil (x2) - appear to be good - no burnt wire - free movement through coil
3. Replaced any capacitors
Here are items I have noticed that may or may not be related:
1. Horseshoe clip on one drop target is broken - not making connection to board (looking for replacement)
2. Credit knocker mechanism is missing (only coil present - don't even know what I need)
3. Weight from plumb bob tilt missing (wire is there, but not weighted - no clue where to get one)
I have not replaced any capacitors on the power supply board, and don't know if any would cause this to blow. I also have not added fuses to the bridge rectifier (solenoid or lamps). I picked up the supplies to do that this weekend, but have not had a chance to put them in yet.
Is there any way to check if the non-replaced coils are any good? I have a multimeter, but am a complete n00b and have no clue what I am doing. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
