Any suggestions for why some of the lights are not woking.The 3 in the lower  playfield (the eyes and mouth) are not working, the white musical notes  in the left and right lane are not working,also the red ones with the hornes on them in the same area.The 3 at the top of the playfield with A ,X and E on them also not working.The led strip that runs above the hornes on the back of the playfield are not woking.What do l do.

have you added anything recently, moved or lifted the playfield - or has it worked for a while and then suddenly had issues?

The LEDs themselves will be ok. I'd check the power line to the lamps first. There must be something common like a fuse. Always a good place to start.

I'm not home ATM otherwise I could have a look at which one. But I'm guessing it will be a fuse in the back box

Check for any loose wire connectors under playfield. I had a similar issue but with a different set of leds where one connector was loosened.
