Hey guys,
I've spent the last few weeks re-stenciling and shopping my space station.
I got everything just about put back together when a few tech issues arose.
Hope a few of you system 11 gurus can point me in the right direction
1. Setting will not hold. It keeps reverting back to factory. I put a remote battery holder in, to get the batteries off of the mpu. It has new batteries and worked for a few days. now its not. ( I did leave for a week, and then came back to it doing this)
2. The left GI was not working, the white, or green, I traced the problem to the far relay board under the play field and found burn on the connector (common problem), I removed the burned solder and reflowed all of the connections on the little board, also tested continuity to make sure the burn did not create issues with and connections ( I assume the relay is bad, but wanted to see if this would help). put it back in, same problem. I then swapped the other good relay from the front of the under play field with it. then everything appeared to work. I Started a game and the jet bumpers stopped working. thought ok, the relay needs to be replaced after all. then I put both relays back in their original places, and powered on, and everything was working, both left and right GI are on (weird). I started a game, jet bumpers still don't work and then later noticed the F3 fuse that controls the jet bumpers and the right ball lock blew.
SO, the fuse in it that blew... did this happen because of the bad relay and swapping them?
The F3 fuse that blew, was a 125VOLT 1 8/10 (that's the info on the fuse)
the manual says to use a 250 volt 2A, I have one (250 v ?A), and I put it in, and it stuck the first coil on the jet bumper in test mode.
The cheat sheet in the backbox next to the F3 fuse says to use a 25Volt (2 A.S.B.)
which fuse DO I use??? LOL
Thank you guys for any help!
