Hello all....I posted last year while restoring this machine. I finished it and had it in storage quite a while. I moved and took it with me. I fired it back up and not the DMD is not working. It was poor before with some lines through it so I just up and bought a new DMD and the Video...

GOT IT!!!! Everything is working now....I started to replace the diodes on those 3 coils...found one that was on in reverse...(dont know why I didn't notice it before)....so I replaced it....put it back together....and low and behold....everything is working...my bumpers are weak but I haven't...

and you did check to make sure the chips were in correctly? I am really not that familiar with the displays.... On my machine....I finally got my flippers to work....changed out the PPB and a diode on the flippers. I still cannot get the ball shooter, the kickback, and the VUK to work.....I...

I believe if you check on http://www.pinrepair.com/de/index.htm he walks you through it. Mine didn't work when the chips were in backwards (check the little indentation on the chip with arrow on the board...they should line up). Also mine had the lines messed up because there were no spacers...

Oh...one more thing....is a Lethal Weapon machine missing only the CPU and Sound Panel worth $400? The playfield parts are VERY good....could I make my money parting it out?

I am not good at working the delicate soldering. I am pretty sure the grounds are the problem. I disconnected everything but the two sets of wires in the top middle (black wires that I believe are ground wires). Turned it on and it blew the fuse. Should I attempt to unsolder the area and...

I disconnected the connectors going to the flippers and it still blew the fuse? I took the PPB off and again the soldering and wiring done looks very bad. I am going to buy a new board...so watch later as I will have a power supply board and PPB board for sale....maybe someone can fix them.

Ok....I got the machine to boot up again (thanks to pinrepair.com....figured out I had my proms in backwards...DUHHH). Still no flippers and the others I've had problems with....but....I found a blown fuse..YAAA!!!... replaced it...power it up... and the fuse blows right away.....might have...

Thanks for the pic....I wired it in...I have everything hooked up...any bad wiring properly fixed. I changed out all the proms...turn it on....and now it won't boot. The pia lamp and the +5 lamp are on but the blanking is not. Marvin's guide says that is a problem with the EPROM at location...

That pic is good....I hate to ask but can you tell me the wire color in the far upper right hand (has 8 wires going into it). Thanks again

I made the plastics on the left side...they are both with the guys holding the guns. It is time consuming but they don't look too bad....curious as to how long they will last....I used sticker project paper with a reverse image stuck to the bottom (becomes face up then). They are darker than...

I did the diagnostic test first....then checked the coils that didn't fire the way you described....I also replaced the laser kick coil with one that was firing through the tests to see if it was working that way....it did not work after I changed it....so it isn't the coils. The power board...

Where is the A-B relay you are talking about? I checked and my coils are all good. I'm thinking the power board at this point....

Ok...I will try that this afternoon. I did pick this up in Richmond.....do you know of the machine?

I dont have a switch on the right of the coin door...I checked all the wires on the left side and none are disconnected...the flipper board looks fine. I also realize that the lazer kick coil doesn't work either....so its pretty much all the ones up front (flippers, lazer kick, and...
