Hi all,
While I was waiting to get some multimeter assistance with Dan (Riverinapinball), I decided to go back through Hot Tip and check switches from the beginning of the startup sequence until the point where everything stops. The machine seemed to be doing different things every time I turned it on and seemed to be getting worse.
To cut a long story short, I managed to get the flippers constant power by discovering that a switch on the Game Over relay wasn't making proper contact. I adjusted and cleaned the switch and now the flipper buttons have power!
Now when I start a game, the bonus unit resets at the appropriate point in the startup sequence, but the Outhole relay doesn't seem to energise and reset the drop targets or kick out the ball. It will reset the drop targets if I manually press the relay. Previously, if I kept pressing the start button, the ball would kick out randomly, but this has stopped completely now.
Cheers!
Adam.
