Hi

I just set up my Whirlwind pinball and it played great for about 15 games ... then the "topper blower fan" stopped working.

The fuse for the TRIAC driver pcb, under the "topper blower fan" in the backbox was blown. It had a 250 volt, 3 amp, slow burn fuse in there.

I have 2 different copies of Whirlwind manuals and they show different fuses to be used there ...
250 volt, 1 amp, slow burn fuse
250 volt, 5 amp, slow burn fuse

Can somebody PLEASE check there Whirlwind pinball and see what fuse you actually have in yours? Thanks in advance

Thanks everyone!!!! Everything is back up and working after replacing BOTH fuses with the 5 amp. The old ones in mine were both 3 amp ... with one of them being blown.
