Rudy's eyelids broke on my Funhouse, so I took his face off and removed them. While I'm waiting on the replacement, I figured I'd just play with no eyelids, so I put him all together and powered it on.
But, I've run into a problem. When I start up a game, Rudy starts to talk, and as soon as he does, it triggers a 'Rudy Gulp'. It does this over and over, because he keeps trying to talk, and every time he does it triggers the gulp. I should note that this was a fully working machine previous to this - Rudy Gulp worked properly, as did all other aspects of the game.
I've checked the micro-switch and it's fine (both in-place and removed).
I've checked the wires, and don't see anywhere that it could be shorting.
So I figure it's got to be the jaw moving and actually physically activating the switch somehow, but I've watched it in action, and it doesn't seem to actually trigger the switch (I took Rudy's face off, and shined a flashlight in there to try to see what was going on).
Any ideas on what's going on here?
Thanks in advance.
