Hi,

Anyone know what are the correct fuses for a baby pacman?
Playfield has 3 underneath - not sure what to put in...

Bottom has fuses as well...one blew, I replaced it and it got REALLY hot.

So, could this be due to me using the wrong fuse?

Anyone know what the replacement fuses should be?

Thanks!
Chris
 
Fuses - best place to buy?

I found an online manual for baby pacman and now know the original fuses were not the right ones.

Local Radio Shack does not have what I need:

3/4 a 250v 3ag
6a 32v 3 ag
5a...
20a...
15a...

1amp 3 ag slow burn....

PS - a= amp, v= voltage, ag=????

Thanks,
Chris
 
3AG is the old designation. AGC is the new designation for fast acting fuses. You can read more about it here. I believe GDC is for Slow Blow/Time Delay fuses.

According to the manual, you will need:

(under playfield)
-1A 250v Slow Blow for Solenoids
-(2) 10A 250v for playfield lights

(transformer)
-3/4A 250v
-6A 250v
-5A 250v
-20A 250v
-15A 250v

You can get most at Radio Shack. I usually get fuses from the hardware store(Menards/Home Depot/etc...).
 
Thanks GB!

Manual said 32v ? What is the difference putting 250v?
 
Thanks! Radio Shack has all the 250v s

Another question - glass or ceramic?

Also, what is the difference for slow and fast burn?
