2001 Olympia - Trick Monster - Won't Wake Up

there might be a theory that says. If your not getting a confirmation led on the main board, where you are for everything else ie. stop buttons, spin lever, reel zero position, mode after jackpot switches. that might say that maybe the reset sensor on the door lock is faulty. of course. you would need to test the sensor output with a multimeter. Its an infrared led thats over 20 years old. so it might have failed.

I just confirmed with my IR camera that the sensor's light is functional. I don't believe there is a corresponding LED on any of the boards, can anyone confirm?
