Where the power switch is
Most games have a toggle or push-button power switch under the cabinet near the front right corner; home models put it on the back and cocktail tables underneath. Some very old games have no switch at all. Check that the switch is firmly mounted and its wires are not frayed.
The power switch is wired at full line voltage.
