Title: No Power to Ballasts Post by: kevinleedrum on August 26, 2012, 03:15:48 AM Hello everyone, sorry to be a bother, but I have an issue with an I-Game Wild Cherry that my dad purchased. I'm more of a pinball guy, so I need a little direction. I'm not getting any voltage from the connections that go into the ballasts (both the top and bottom lights). Is there a common cause for this that I should check first? If it helps, the 13V lights on the front work fine. I followed the wires from the bottom ballast, and they appear to go to a cabinet I/O board, and then to the backplane. There is an empty connector on the front side of that removable cabinet I/O board; is that supposed to be empty?
Thanks for any help :) Title: Re: No Power to Ballasts Post by: kevinleedrum on September 21, 2012, 03:58:19 PM Just ended up replacing the power supply, and the fluorescents work fine now, as does the sound (which wasn't working either).
