I don't know if the game is playing i cant see anything and i don't hear anything just the board lights is all Ive gotton
Flick the coin switch and see if a game will start. Make sure the volume is turned up.
"Playing blind" means just that..... can start, hear and play a game just can't SEE it.
and the marquee doesn't light up i don't know if the bulb is burned out or not. The main fuse on the transformer next to the service outlet yes.
When you unplug the "monitor", are you unplugging just the two wire connector right at the monitor or the bigger one with other wires in it closer to the transformer ?
Reason I ask is you have a non-working marquee, could be just a bulb or starter...... BUT a shorted ballast will blow the same fuse.
The marquee and monitor share the same power source.
Something worth checking.
