BOP Bride of Pinbot

Trouble always comes in three's I have heard.
I fired up the BOP and the left flipper was not working.
My W?D who ? Dunnit blows the main fuse at power up.
Twilight Zone startup failure.
I replaced the left flipper fuse in the BOP, (it is cool it has a fuse for each flipper) and it held and is back up and working 100%. I had a great game testing it out, I made her sing and got into the Billionaires club.
I posted already on th eTZ, I had to just re-seat the back box connectors to get it working.
I have not trouble shooted the W?D yet, I replaced the fuse and it held until the coin door was closed. A switch on the coin door opens the high voltage coils as a safety, so it must be in the coil circuit, probably a bridge rectifier.
2 out of three ain't bad for now.
BTW the LED's I placed in the Bride are dazzling! I am going to get more. The current draw is much less and the response is instant, the inserts have excellent illumination. I think the lower power draw might help add longevity to the old girls circuits.
