New to EM games, got this game a few months ago. Almost had it fully operational..wasn't registering scores/ wasnt acknowledging hits/those same winner and or missed lights werent lighting up.
It was starting up/ticking off time/firing gun sound and bumping/cycling the Center GUNFIGHTER/ and half the time would cycle through all the pop-up or pop-out characters. It would also end the game with Game Over and allow the START button a single push to start and or restart the game.
I Recently took the play field out in attempts to clean mildew and install LED lamps just below said field. After re-assembly, all it will do is power up interior light and TOPGUN lamp above. Game over lamp will not light, Start button must be held in to reset time and score to zeros, I can advance "hits" with Relay but nothing is operating. I have gone back over what I've done several times, removed and installed as well. Finding no obvious issues.Real Head Scratcher.... Could I have shorted the Program Timer Discrete Board some how? And if so, HOW would I check that?
Operating clip was too big to load, sorry

I have the same game. The led lights were an issue with this one. I went back to bulbs as it gave me weird errors once I put them in. I changed all of the old capacitors and cleaned all of the rotating parts ( most people try to oil them and it messes them up after a while by collecting dust... )
 
Ahhh, thanks for the info. Not finding too much out there on this machine or too many people that know much about it. I appreciate the advice. I'm trying to take in anything and everything I can on it. I'll swap the LEDs out for OG bulbs and test. I've gone through all the mech parts already. Will have to look into Capicitors next if it fails testing.
Thanks again
