Another update on mine. I rebuild both of my triac boards and plugged it in. I have both motors out but plugged in to test. As soon as I turn it on it tries to test the motors and trips the breaker (main). If I unhook the board it will start up. Then I hook it back up and go into diagnostic. I tested all my motors and will only work on my left right connection on the back connection for forward and back I do not get anything from the motors. Obviously the motors are good. When I checked my triac board again everything still tested good. I have not tried the other board yet. Any ideas why it would trip on motor warm up but not when running in diagnostics? Also any ideas why I am getting nothing from my forward/ back connection. I checked my wiring to the triac board from the motor and everything looks good. I am stuck!!
Ideas anybody???
 
someone else out there with this game

So nice to see another afterburner deluxe out there so close to where I am(Northeast Pa). I own two, but one is for parts. I had issues with the rear motor also only at start up. When the cabinet rocks the front end up, I have this issue. I am still not sure if I have a weak motor or a board issue. The monitor(front) part of the cabinet is much heavier and harder on the motor. When it starts to move I will simply pull down on the cabinet from the top rear, this allows the cabinet to hit the limit switch and pass the initial startup test. Then the game plays and moves fine. I am currently waiting on a motor tech to come off vacation to rebuild that motor to see if that will correct it.
 
Afterburner

Let me know. If I can ever get mine to work right I will have extra parts. I have 4 motors with the gear and wheel and two spare gears. I also just got ahold of some spare drive boards. I already rebuilt my triac boards. I am going to replace my wheels that go around the cabinet also. Did yours trip,the breaker at start up? I have both of my motors out and have been testing them that way. I am hoping it is something on this drive board. Let me know what else you have had issues with. Also if you happen to have other spare parts.
 
Sorry for the delay. Not on this site much. I have many extra boards and motors. But it is darn hard to find good ones and I need what I have. The 15 amp fuse blows on mine once in a while during startup. I can unplug both motors and it still does it. When this happens there is a humming type noise from the front that only last for a second before the fuse blows. The only other issue I have is the screen has waves in it. The images aren't blurry, just lines like interference or something. Fun game, but I never owned one that required so much of my time and money to keep operating! !! Next time send me a private message.
