Yeah I twisted the two power wires together, You taught me this lesson last time when we found a blown coil on this very machine:)
The 5A lasted so there may now not be a short not sure. To be certain I will get a replacement coil and replace the one that is now not working and will re-connect the one that I have taken off to see if that was the problem also.
Once again you have got me going. Thanks heaps. I can't believe it was the power supply all along. I have now learnt that the under play field fuses control the coils, so if the machine ever stops working again, I will at least know where to look.

Next machine on the hit list is the Winter Sports Project :)
Sorry Beaky, no flight for you this time, but I will still send those boards down to you.
