I just bought a fully restored White Water. I have one issue that the seller can't help me with - so wondering if someone with this game could look under their playfield, snap some pics, and help me out with what I'm missing.

All my flashers work correctly except the flasher for the mine (Next to the outlane with the kickback. When the ball is ejected from the mine to the flipper, a sound is heard, and the games I have played will FLASH the flasher under that boulder for the mine. My connection to the flasher seems to have an always on current - so when i plugged it in i noticed the boulder was lit up all the time, and the flash was getting hot and trying to burn. I unplugged the connection with the flasher immediately. I can't find any other 2 prong molex connectors that are hanging free under the playfield, and the game was restored using an old wiring harness and some things have been modified (cut/spiced/taped) - so not sure what I'm looking for.

Could someone describe the colored wires coming from where the flash connects to the molex connector - and tell me where the wires terminate? Hopefully I can get a better idea of where to look for the missing connection using this info. I know the sound has to correlate with the flashing - I'm guessing it terminated s on the power driver board. Looks like possibly the wiring in question is the blue wire with black striping (Black squares). I am posting pictures of the colored wires that are connected to the insanity falls flasher and that one (Just in front of the mine boulder in one of the falls boulders (Middle left of game).... Insanity falls looks like blue with green wire and looks to terminate at the bottom of the power driver board.

With this in mind - if my blue and black wire is terminating with the same molex connector on the power driver board, what could I do to remedy the situation, since this would mean that there is constant power coming from the board to "activate" that flasher constantly?

Thanks for the help in advance.

I'm not familiar with troubleshooting it. I can get someone to come look at it if necessary. Is there an easy way to troubleshoot it? Thanks for the help on it.

Thanks for the reply. I had no idea which flasher it could be and what transistor - since my game didn't come with a manual or schematics. I was going to order those off Ebay, so this definitely saves me a long process ! I will look at it today.

Thanks. Got it fixed and it was that transistor. I learned a lot in the process. I appreciate all the help.
