hi my lights above the joy stick on both side dont work. I did the obvious and changed the bulbs and that did nothing....what should i look for? Thanks
 
Did they ever work? Stopped recently?

Disconnected Wires, Cut Wires, Blown fuse, Bad Socket. Dirty contacts..

I'd hit them with a Volt meter. Test the Socket, then test the wires. If you get nothing then trace the wires back to see what they plug into. Not sure on a cocktail but on uprights the lights usually plug into the 12v from the PS. Maybe the lines got yanked or crimped. or they run threw a fuse or power block and its super dirty or blown.
 
Sounds like a fuse issue.
Try testing the fuse block at the bottom of the game.
Sent you a pm if you needed brand new lights for it.
 
fuses all good. Wires all intact. Just no lights?...if one is bad will all 4 not work? I didtn change all 4 just one at a time to see...
 
I have a pac cocktail so I will see if I can help you with this...No, all lights oont have to be good to have any lights...Are you getting power at the sockets? at the fuse? When I was restoring the power block on my pac cocktail I found over time some of the wires has came loose from the transformer and some from the fuse holders where the wires solder to those parts....perhaps you have the same problem...

also , what type of bulbs did you put in? 161 or 194's are what should be used...

Check your 12 volt output on your transformer to see if you are getting power there. The bulbs are #194 and work independent of each other make sure they are grounded propperly.
 
Personally I like using 161's rather than 194's. 161's run cooler and are only 3 watts (versus 4 watts for the 194's)...
