Gottlieb Rescue 911 "Control Board Error"
« on: August 24, 2013, 07:40:12 PM »
Hi, this is my first post here and you will have to excuse my lack of pinball knowledge as this is my first machine!
(I only got it yesterday)
I tested it on pick-up, all was fine (except missing lines in the screen, which apparently come back after an hour or so?)

When I got it back to my home and plugged it in, I've got a "Control Board Error" message displayed on the screen.
Does anyone have any ideas of what it might be, that I can fix?

Thanks in advance - If you would like any pictures, let me know. Keen to get it running!

Probably start with reseating/checking connectors on each board (power off when doing this). Possible a connector has come loose during transit.

Thankyou, I'll check it all. Are there any guides online that may help me with this sort of thing?
