None of the coils fire.
No 50 V coils work
Cause: Fuse F112 is blown or bridge BR3 has failed. A shorted BR3 can also take the main line fuse, sometimes only once the coin door is closed.
Checks
- Check F112 and the line fuse.
- Test BR3.
Fix
- Replace BR3 if shorted, then fuses with the correct rating.
Line voltage is present in the power box and at the transformer whenever the game is plugged in; unplug it before working there.
