Triple Action
Williams, 1974So I've almost got my triple action done and when I was redoing a cold solder joint it fell off well I forgot to unplug the machine and it touched a negative wire and since I had the wrong size fuses in it, it blew a coil. So does anyone know what fuses go in it and the voltage and amps of them and does anyone know where the cheapest place to buy them is?
If it's a glass tube with metal caps on the end fuse. It should be marked on one of the sides of the metal cap.
Auto parts store or hardware store might have them. No idea on cheapest, especially if you have to pay shipping.
LTG : )
Quoted from Tripleaction_22:I know they where glass fusses but what size like amps and volt?
It should say on one of the ends.
I don't have the correct fuses as is I'm ordering new ones and don't know what ones are correct and what ones are not .

Quoted from bluespin:slow blowing BUS fuses, a great brand.
Don't use slow blowing fuses unless the game specifically calls for them.

Yeah, generally EMs don't it seems?
Even with the correct fast blow fuse I find I tend to melt coils before the fuses blow. They could probably do with some under-fusing really.
