I'm sorry, your PLAYFIELD won't come on?

#4 6 years ago

Like the lights on your playfield won't come on? Last time I checked the playfield itself doesn't need power

Please try to be specific and describe what is or isn't working, or anything leading up to this issue that may have contributed to the problem.

Try turning The game on.

First go through each connector, unplug each one at a time, and reinsert it carefully.

Unplug and re-plug the ribbon cable between the cpu and power board, then report back. And please read through the pinwiki

Check fuses too

#12 6 years ago

So i checked all my connectors and the were all plugged in and tight, none of my fuses look to be blown but is there another way to check the fuses besides just looking at them?

Pull and check with a meter. Then check voltage test points on the power driver board.

Can you post a couple pictures of the boards with the game turned on?

#15 6 years ago

Based on your other thread asking about free play and having a couple of responses about having an older game ROM installed, did you get v9.2? If so, check to see if you bent a pin or plugged the part in backwards.

Okay,m you are using a Pinsound board.
It is getting power, NONE of your other boards are.

Was it installed correctly? Take that board out of the equation by removing (or unplugging) it. Likely, it wasn't installed correctly, and the +5V for the other boards aren't getting to them.

so i unplugged the pinsound board taking it out of the equation and reset the game still no power to my playfield lights or other boards, the main board has 2 out of the 4 red led lights lit up, so that board is getting power somewhat, the game has worked long after the pinsound board has been installed, that i am aware of, i did not do the installation. If it helps any the playfield lights flash on for a split second when the game is first turned on or off occasionally it doesn't happen every time though, maybe 3 out 5 and its just like a blink. That was also doing it before i removed the pinsound board out of the equation.

This is normal - that's the power board 'booting' up as voltages come online.

In this case, then, trace the +5v wire from the MPU back, all the way to the power board. Look for breaks or cut wires, voltages, etc until you get to the issue. Somewhere in there is a break, plain and simple.
