hi from australia. i am new to this forum, and am very glad to have found it !
i have an original midway upright space invaders, one of the very early ones i think with a serial number in the 5,000s. recently i took all the electronics out of the cabinet to clean out the years of crap that had accumulated. when i replaced all the electronics and turned the machine back on the 3amp 12volt fuse blew on the transformer.
could anyone give me some idea of where to start looking? i have been suggested to look at the bezel lights. i assume i need a multimeter to test these.. i also seem to remember the on off switch was abit loose and could possibly be shorting...
i was also wondering if anyone can suggest a decent multimeter to buy as im abit of a noob where multimeters are concerned.
thanks in advance
