For the record I had 3 days on my TWDLE before both magnets stopped working. Discovered it was a 4 amp fuse and replaced it but not before it blew twice more during the first game each time after being replaced.

Turns out I was using a 4 amp/250v rapid acting fuse instead of a slow blow. OOOPS! I'm a pinball newb and that was lesson #1 for me. I bought a couple 5 and 3's when I went back for the slow blow 4 just to have some on hand because I didn't know if fuses blowing was going to be a frequent or normal occurrence.

By the way, is it?

Oh well, everything has been great ever since that one incident. Love the machine.

F7 under the back glass. I snapped these pictures last week when it happened to me. Turned out to be no big deal. Just make sure you use a 'slow blow" 4A fuse

Has this fuse blown on anyone more than once? I have at least 500 games on TWDLE since mine blew and it hasn't given me any trouble since the initial trouble on day 3 of owning it.

If you don't want to wait for an online order just go to any radio shack.

If you feel you have a SDTM issue and it's affecting your enjoyment pull the fuse and let us know. I remember when my fuse blew a long time ago I played for hours with out the magnets. It definitely felt like something was missing without the random chaos the magnets cause. I wouldn't be happy playing it that way knowing what I was missing.
