Hahahaha - frickin pinballs HATE me these days  :lol

Turn game on - all works OK - no DMD display as reported

So I am assuming the new cable will fix this 'common' issue.
I have pointed my mate Patrick to RTBB site to grab one.

I ask 'is the rest of the game OK .....

He tells me the ball 'count' is wrong and the game sometimes spits out a 2nd ball when it isnt meant to.
I check the ball trough switches and one of them is all F8cked up, bent and stuck.
With the machine off and out of the wall socket I remove microswitch, straighten blade, re-screw it in and it is all nice and free again.
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET I think to myself

Plug game in, turn game on - COMPLETELY DEAD - NOTHING - not even a PEEP   @.@
Arrrrrr FFS I think to myself and start to sweat bullets.
Meanwhile my mate is blowin joints in the confined space room - which I am sure wasnt assisting me  #@#

Couple of panic calls to Nino....check main fuses etc - all good in test - try other fuses just in case- NOTHING.
Then it hits me......I grab a little thing he has plugged in to another power point- chuck it in this power point - DEAD.

So it wasnt me after all  #*#
