Fuse F14 blows, killing the trap door, the right side extra ball kicker and the main playfield up-kicker together.
Haunted House F14 keeps blowing
Cause: The specified 2.5 A slow-blow is too small for three coils on one fuse (Gottlieb uses 5 A on single-kicker circuits).
Checks
- First rule out a locked-on coil or shorted playfield transistor on that circuit.
Fix
- Fit a 5 A slow-blow at F14.
