On system 3-6 you move wires on the transformer to deal with various voltage conditions. Tell us which terminals the various colored wires are connected to which transformer terminals.

Agree, that looks like 220V wiring.
However, to know if your setup is high-tapped, you need to see which terminals those wires are soldered onto the transformer.
Quoted from zacaj:You think that someone messed with the factory wiring on the transformer? Why would anyone do that?
If you have a machine in an area with low voltage, bad wiring, etc, the performance of the pops can be decreased, and could cause resets, etc. You can change the wiring to bump up the voltages ~10% to bring back performance. Seeing as his voltages are high, it makes sense to see if someone high-tapped the transformer.
Quoted from waffen_spain:Problem solved, moved brown-red wires from 6 to 8, and black-yellow from 2-3 to 4 at the transfo input.
Now I have 6.8 to 7 volts at bulbs, I have to test coils but looks ok.
Thank you all guys!!
Sweet! Congrats on the fix!
