Fuse 104 on my No Fear eventually blows after 3 - 10 games. The transistors seem to test out fine with no shorts.

Here's what's acting strange - INTERMITTENTLY, during the game and also during solenoid test, the auto plunger and kickback EACH will stay energized SLIGHTLY after firing. If you barely tap it with your finger or a ball touches it, it recedes. It just seems that ground is just barely getting to the entire circuit all the time, eventually causing an overload on the fuse.

(and yes, 104 is the high voltage on this board, not the low voltage solenoid as printed in the manual. THAT was the first conundrum I had to figure out...)

Thanks and Happy Flipping!
