Every solenoid is dead and the fuses test fine.

No coils work at all, fuses are good

Cause: The coin-door interlock switch has failed or is not pushed in far enough when the door shuts. It breaks coil power from the transformer before it reaches the driver board.

Checks

  • Look at the driver board solenoid power LEDs: they stay dark when the interlock is open.
  • Check the switch closes fully with the door shut, and test it for continuity.

Fix

  • Adjust or replace the coin-door interlock switch.
