Check the bottom board and playfield fuses early
Each bottom board fuse feeds one part of the game, so check them near the start of any repair. Playfield fuses also exist, and how many there are and their ratings change from game to game.
Line voltage is present at the bottom board, line filter and primary fuse whenever the game is plugged in.
