Title: ATTENTION TZ OWNERS - HELP!
Post by: felixthadog on March 31, 2009, 03:24:39 PM

Diverting for a moment from this thread -> http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?topic=1080.0 (http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?topic=1080.0)

Could somebody who owns a TZ please, please, please remove the connector to the Knocker assembly in the backbox and test to see if "Solenoid 7" is present in the SOLENOID TEST menu and/or "A3. 21" is present in the PRICING ADJUSTMENTS menu?  @@^

Thanks,
Matthew

Yes and yes.
Just because your knocker isn't working does not change the menu burnt into the ROM, I do understand what you are looking for though as disscussed in your previous post.
I have disconnected to confirm for you they both appear, but obviously the knocker does not fire.

Thanks Matt, it wasn't the answer I was hoping for but at least now I know.

No worries mate, by the way my rom is the Home 9.4 ROM.
Good luck sorting it out

That's good, it rules out another possibility.

The jumpers were the problem! W17 and W18 had been switched off, I switched them back on and hey presto, Solenoid 7 shows up in the Test Menu  $#$

Thanks to everyone that responded, especially Andrew who was spot on with his diagnosis about the jumpers  #*#

Cheers,
Matthew
