Police force issue

[infinite1977]

Finally got some working displays :)
So i can now see what's going on
 Thanks to all involved so far in fixing these :)

Next problem.
1.) When I boot the machine the display writes "Factory settings" and nothing else comes on. I then turn it off and on and then everything lights up. What could be the problem? ??

2.) The police car lights up but doesn't seem to move up and down.

1. Are your batteries in good condition and not too old?

2. Check connections to the relay board under playfield.  Also is the drive belt in good condition?

Thanks Steve. Batteries are ok but i might try some new ones. I assure your talking about the AA ones on the main board.

As for the relay board or drive belt, how do i check them exactly. I will take a pic later

Yes, I assure you I am talking about good old double A's. 

Just reseat the connector on the motor relay board to start with.

A quick visual inspection should reveal any belt troubles.

P.s also noticed I have two different coils for my sling shots one is ae 26-1500 which is correct
The other one is ae 23-800
Is this a major drama

You might want to look at the polarity of the batteries.

Yep, if I'm looking correct ins't the + sign at the bottom?? You look to have the batteries upside down?

Have you downloaded the manual at all? http://mirror2.ipdb.org/files/1841/Williams_1989_Police_Force_Operations_Manual.pdf

PG58 shows the info you need

Got a bit of the brown/white fuzzies on the terminals on that battery holder in the picture as well.

Put some new batteries in the correct way around as suggested and if it is still getting the factory restored message you might need to look into replacing the holder with either a new one or ideally with a remote off board alternative.

I do have the manual. My question is does it matter that one coil is different?? More so what is the difference between the two coils

After posting the pic I realised they are upside down. Still does the same. Will get new batteries and clean the terminals and hopefully that solves the issue
