I bought this at auction and have never worked on these before. I dont see a brand name, model number, etc…

Cant find the test/start button.
Fuse's look good.
When i press ON i hear the coin mech make a click noise.
Coin mech wont take coin. Kind of dirty.

Cant get it to start.

What should i do? Any generic manuals i should look for?

Thanks for the help.

The game starts on the drop of a coin. The coin mechanism needs to work to start that cycle.
 
Hey thanks.
I will take the coin mech apart and give it a good cleaning. Looks like there is a small circuit board on it. Hope it still works.
 
All of that except for the music can be easily replaced. "Kiddie Ride" through the search function should help you out.
 
Did you check the fuses?

Did you check power is getting to the game from the wall plug?

Did you turn the switch on on the control box?
 
The fuses look good. When i plug in and flip the power button the coin mech clicks.
The quarter will not go through the coin mech. I took apart and cleaned and still nothing.

You need to make sure that the comparator coin mech is using quarters. Here's a quick vid on how to change the coinage that it accepts:

Wow. That helps.

Also found that this is a "Rainbow Amusement,inc." ride. Schematics on net. I may be missing music box?
 
Update:

Got this thing to work.
Just needed new coin mech.

Pretty cool.

Think i a missing music box but i will work in this later.

Thanks for the help everyone.
