The glove doesn't move or grab balls, often after the game was turned on with the coin door open.
Johnny Mnemonic: glove doesn't work
Cause: The glove motor runs off the 20 V flasher supply, which shuts off with the coin door open, so the power-on glove test fails until the game resets. Otherwise the hand magnet wires break inside their insulation from movement.
Checks
- Close the coin door and reset the game.
- Check the hand magnet in solenoid test. With its driver board fuse good (probably F103), both magnet leads should show about 70 V; voltage on only one lead means a broken wire.
Fix
- Replace the magnet leads with new stranded wire.
