    Default Zangus pachislo blows 8 amp fuse on Power up.

    Hi there, I am new to this forum. I have a Zangus pachislo slot machine and on power up the main 8 amp fuse in the power box blows immediately. I have disconnected everything that plugs into the power box and it still blows. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks EF44

    is the power box 24 volt or 110 volt?? with 24 volt you need a transformer in line from wall outlet to power box.

    or you may have a faulty transformer

    It more than likely is 24vac, not 110. There are several Zangus's (1, 2 and SP1). 1 came out in 1993. 2 in 1998.
    I found a Wan Wan House (same maker) on YJA and it said it was 24vac and it came out in 98.

    110 in to 24 just doesn't go

    Find the machine data plate, it will tell you what voltage it should be, Or its written on the PSU box where the power on/off switch is.

    It has a 110 vac to 24 vac transformer in it. It measures 24vac out on my volt meter.

    Some component in the power supply has failed. If you can take it out and open it up, take some pics of the circuit boards and post them here, we have a few people who are good at that stuff.
