I have a Demo man that has the upper left lamps that do not work. I did the test and the upper left lamps do not light. I was hooking up some comit pinball light strips and think I might have shorted the laps. I so hope that its a fuse and not something more. The pin does not show any faults. I am real new to all this stuff, and this is my first pin. Any help would be great. V/R
 
I figured it out. It was the fuse. That could have been worse. :) I can say the Comit pin lamps and strips are great.
 
Post a picture of your mod. And thanks for posting your own solution.
 
I did some research when I got back from hunting. I replaced the fuse with the same Amp, and Volt rating. Its a AGC type. If I understand this right it is a fast blow type. I believe the one that blew is a slow blow type, but I could not find that type locally. From what I read on line it is ok to replace a slow blow with a fast blow but not the other way around. I am going to order a complete replacement set of fuses for the pin, but it was killing me not having all the lamps not working.

When I hooked up the LED strips in the back I used the alligator clips, and hooked them to a lamp that is always on. Hope this is ok. I plan to sauder them if it isn't a potential problem where they are hooked.
