What is a switch and fuse on a coin box for?
« on: February 02, 2015, 11:14:24 pm »
So this isn't currently hooked up to anything in my JAMMA cabinet, and it doesn't seem to affect coin door operation, please forgive my ignorance and let me ask what is it for?

Service button and a coin counter fuse???

I've got a fuse one my cocktail, and then a small bank of internal buttons.  none of which are still connected to the JAMMA harness.

It might also be a custom wireup for the marquee light.  :dunno

Well, it is more convenient to access a fuse through the coin door, rather than moving the cabinet in and out plus removing the back cover etc.
