williams solid state pinball - disco fever - fuses?

on my disco fever, the lights for my pop bumpers are not working. the fuse is blown. i need to replace it but i cant find any information of what fuse s required? the info on the old fuse is worn and i do not have any diagnostics for the board. does anyone know which fuse i need? also any info on the other fuses required in the pinball would be helpfull too as there is no info in the pinball about the type of uses required. any help would be appreciated?

Not sure if this is GI on this game or a controled lamp?

If it is fuse No 9.  If it is GI ?

If its controlled, its fuse No 6 ?

I believe they were originally 10amp slo-blow, but would need the schematic to be sure

Stupid question time - What fuse is blown and can you see the value on the fuse ?

Usually WMS machines have a small card next to the backbox fuses the the values there. I guess that has gone ?

Info for this can be found on Clays site, but it seems to be down at the moment ( is for me anyway).
Its a system 3 so anyone with a williams sytem 3 -7 should be able to answer this. I also need the values for my Laser Force

OK - I have a Lazer Ball Schematic which states that the fuses on the power supply should be ;

F1 - 1/4 ASB (High Voltage)
F2 - 2 1/2 ASB (Solenoids)
F3 - 8 A (Lamps)
F4 - No Value ? (Flippers)
F5 - 4 A (+5 volts)
