Just joined the team today. Been on the wishlist for a while and didn’t get a great example but happy to have it.

Are the fuses listed in the diagram correct or are some known to be incorrect?
This one has a couple way off. F114 shows 8A 32V but had a 7A 250V and F903 had a 30A 32V instead of a 3A 250V. I guess some people put in whatever fits.

The center soccer ball inserts are coming up a bit and the skill decal is gone. Is there any decals for these or a way to clean up anyone knows off?

Did some searching but didn’t find anything. Forgive me if I missed it.

Looking forward to playing once I get the correct fuses in.

Yep. That’s why I’m waiting to turn it on again until I pick up some fuses today and then I’ll see what happens. Hopefully they had just thrown in what they had and there’s not some other issues blowing the fuses. It was on route and this guy didn’t keep up machines so he is one who would just get it running. Batteries had 2013 written on them.

So I fixed some switches and got things working. One question I have is with the ball lock. I get it to the point of saying to hit either ramp to lock and I do but the ball just passes by. In test if I roll a ball along the path the switches all register and the magnet works in solenoid test. Am I missing something on what triggers the lock magnet?

OK. So in testing I should be able to get it ready to lock, hold a ball near the magnet, trigger the switch and see if the magnet fires. I will try that later today.
Maybe the magnet is not strong enough? Although I haven't notice the magnet sound like with the magna save. But can't say it hasn't played for sure.

So I tried, with a game going, lighting the lock and manually hitting the switch and no magnet buzz sound audio. Tested again in switch test and the switch (78) registers when I roll a ball through or hit it with my finger. So it seems like the switch isn’t registering while lock is lit. If it was and the problem was with the magnet I would get the magnet buzz audio after the switch hit. Or is the audio played when the magnet is activated? Kind of confused on where this lies.

In my case the magnet isn’t activating at all. In my test I lit lock, held the ball over the magnet and hit the switch. If it was a strength or time issue I would have at least felt a little pull and heard the magnet kick on but nothing happened.

So, here's what happened.

Tested again the switches and magnet and OK.

I would get an error at power up but nothing in the test report so didn't know where the error was from. (Had a post about that I started) I had also found the shooter lane switch was disconnected. When connected, the switch would cause the ball eject to fire all the balls out one by one. In switch edge test, with the switch connected, activating it would register itself but I noticed the trough ball stack opto would blink slightly on the matrix. I replaced the diode and removed the spade connector on the shooter lane switch. Tested again and the ball stack did not flicker. Powered up and no error. Good. Started a game and manually rolled the ball around to light lock. Rolled up the left lamp and magnet grabbed it and held for a second and dropped it in like it should. Started multiball and let it drain. Lit lock again and hit right ramp and magnet grabbed. Great.

So it appears the shooter lane switch not working caused the magnet not to kick on in the program. I guess a ball count issue since it never saw it in the lane? All other aspects of the game worked ok so I was focusing on the magnet and switches. Thought I'd switch gears to the other issue and seems to have resolved it at least for a game. Which is better than I had. I'll test more later since I'm technically "working" from home today and I should show some production.

I'll update later. Thanks for the suggestions.

Now that I’m through the lock issue, for now at least, back to an original question. Any suggestions for the center ball decals? Skill is gone and others are coming up a little.

Yes. Stadium yellow and boards are red on top for jackpot and yellow in the other two. At least that’s how it is on mine. Those are the only lights I haven’t changed to LEDs yet.
