Police force Pinball: Restoration

[DSB]

I was hoping you would posts some pictures. It looks like an interesting project. The playfield deck looks pretty good in those pictures?,  It looks like your going to have many fun hours with it. I will watch with interest!

Playfield should clean up quite nice, I gave it a quick rub down:)
Just one cracked entrance ramp but thats expected. I also got an extra playfield with the deal :)

Does anyone know where these guys belong? Am I missing something

Fuse holder on the side of the backbox (right of the grey capacitor) would be my thought.

[infinite1977]

Yeah I litterally just found that out. I suspect I need a new fuse holder too :)

I have the following connectors blank aux board J9
Cpu board 1J18, 1j14 (cant seem to find a plug for this on the harness)
Backbox interconnect board j2

ok, going through the fuses and found a note in the manual about using a 4A fuse for 220v installations, but as I am little thick on these matters at times, I dont understand which fuse it is referring to. Can anyone shed some light on this. Here is the page I am referring to.

Ok I may have found it :)

Ok I finally got it all plugged in. Machine turns on and I get a blinking light on the main board.  If I turn it off and on twice I get some playfield lights, but displays dont come on at all.
1.) How can I tell if the displays are ok??

You need to check the display voltages on the power supply first mate.  But off my head I can't remember the exact places to test.  I think they need 100v and 90v

[infinite1977]

From what I can see the power board works fine

[ddstoys]

Now measure the power on the display driver board see if it's making it to there

[infinite1977]

I shall do my best

Ok I just noticed that when I touch the side rails I get a shock.  Does this mean the machine in not earthed properly?

It means you stop now and have it looked at. This is the typical project pinball. They were sold as projects for a reason. You may have a mains issue - mains cable not earthed, broken earth strap, or a similar issue to a Secret Service game I looked at that had the fuse holder lugs flapping in the breeze.

Drop the game over in my workshop - I'll have it sorted for you. Electricity is a serious issue.
