    Default Pachinko Grand Prix help

    Two days ago, I decided to give this a good play. I plugged it in and it wouldn't work. I took the main board out and the LED light was out, so I changed it out and the machine started right up.

    Yesterday, I plugged it in and once again, the LED (D6) was out, but this time the LED wan't blown. My thinking is it's the transistor next to it. Any ideas? It is getting power to the board, but not sure what to check.

    If anyone has one of these and can help, PLEASE do!

    Thanks!

    After finding success with my other one, I thought I'd give this one a go but to no avail. If anybody has a main board and is looking to sell... I'm interested.

    It works mechanically like a Nishijin C and shoots electrically so it can be played but of course no lights, wings, etc.

    Putting it out there just in case.

    If the transistor feeds the led. Worth the swap. They are cheap and a common failure.

    I had a mishap with the board. Will need a new one most likely.

    It's been too long since I was messing with this last year and forgot where I was in my repairs.
