I'm about to buy BALLY PAC MAN PINBALL MACHINE

<< < (3/7) > >>

mimic:
Ok, found the bushing fell down and went under a piece of wood. I used mirror inside to find it. Connected everything, fired up machine, pressed push button while looking inside, just in case and saw a green flash and some lights went dead along with flippers not responding, either side. Looks like the flash came from around where some kind of fuses are... Help?

Edit: Just replugged the machine. Nothing lights up except for backglass, the whole playfield is dead and very weak light under first digit of every display. Self test also does not respond, yikes!

StephenH:
Here is some technical info for your pinball system that might help you:

There was no striking there. I appreciate that StephenH posted the link directly to the section dealing with my machine, but I found it right after you posted the link 1st time. I'm asking questions in hope someone can help with a specific problem rather than read through the whole thing that 90% does not apply to what's happening right now. It's like you would want me to learn how to repair entire car, while all I want is to change oil.
For example PinballWizard was right on the money with the coil and EOS, I replaced that and soemthing else happend, maybe someone has some idea or eperience with that situation and can point me directly to the problem without going through a lenghty process.

mimic:
Just made another discovery there is more stuff behind the backglass (maybe there is a problem? Blown fuse or something), but there is a lock on top and I don't have a key for it, how to rape the lock, without damaging anything?

Pinball Wizard:
Where exactly was the lock for the backbox on this again? If it is like Centuar (like this) I would just drill it out but slowly. Even if it is on top you should be able to drill it out. If it is on the front attached to a metal plate (like apollo 13) then it has security bits on it that you could take out and the lock with come out.
