Hey everyone!

I have problem with my TZ game. Basically, when I use the plunger and shoot the ball into the scoop, after it pops out of the slot machine scoop if I press both flipper buttons it causes the game to reset (GI goes off, DMD goes off, then it goes back to "Testing...").

I have two LED light mods that light up the scoops that I made myself. I noticed that they can sometimes make a short (the metal wires from the resistor or LED can sometimes touch the metal elements of the playfield, so I covered them with insulating tape). Could this be the reason the game shuts off? I'm guessing something else is up since flippers aren't really related to GI lighting.

That's highly possible since I got the game with one that snapped off so I soldered it back on (with 18AWG wire lol I know shut up... ). It's not even a proper PCB bridge rectifier. I got a few replacement KBPC3502W ordered.

Replaced that shitty BR for a PCB KBPC3502W, works like a charm now.
