    Hello, I have a time warp and the darn thing will go into attract, take credits, but when I go to start a game no coils work and the background sound goes away. All switches will register points correctly. None of the coils work. It's as if none of them are getting power. I purchased a rebuilt driver from a pinside member here a few months back and just got a rebuilt mpu that passes all of the led flash tests. Any help is greatly appreciated. And yes, the 40 pin has been replaced and redone on both Mpu and driver. Anywhere I should be checking first BECIDES FUSES, as that has already been done.

    All plugs are where they should be. No voltage at coils.

    Quoted from zacaj:

    Voltage at Power supply board 3J3 pins 6-8? At F2? At orange wire on bridge rectifier below the power supply?

    I will check on Sunday, should be good, it's a brand new alltek power supply. But, you never know. Since it's all coils except flippers it can only be a couple things: connections, or main power supply. I don't think it's mpu related, as it passed the led flash tests.

    Update: it was the gulf pinball power supply I purchased off the bay. J3 was getting no power; 10 amp fuse good, but no power going through fuse. Brand New power supply with an issue. I messaged the seller on eBay. We'll see what he says. Put in the original power supply and game functions perfectly.

    Quoted from StratDoc:

    Is the 2.5 amp fuse on the power supply board blowing?
    Sorry, I just saw where you said you checked the fuses. Yes, check to see that you are getting power for the coils from the power supply.

    Talked to eBay seller and he noted that pin 9 on j3 is not powered on his gulf pinball power supply board for williams system 3-6 and I will have to run a jumper from either pin 3 or 6 on j3 to solve the problem. System 7-11 do not utilize power from pin 9 on j3 apparently.
