The game powers up and switches score, but nothing fires: no flippers, no pop bumpers or slings, and no ball to the shooter lane. Replacing the playfield fuse makes no difference.
Switches score but no coil or flipper fires: blown 5 A fuse on a backbox board
Cause: A blown 5 A fuse on one of the backbox boards that feeds the solenoids, separate from the fuse under the playfield.
Checks
- Check every fuse in the game, including those on the backbox boards and under the playfield, out of their holders with a meter.
- Measure the solenoid supply at the power supply board.
Fix
- Replace the blown fuse with the correct rating, and find out why it blew if it goes again.
