Need help with Firedrift

[RKnarr01]

when you go to push the stop buttons does the top right speaker make any sound or just the top left? I cannot get any noice to come out of my top right speaker anyone know what might be wrong with it. ive switch my left speaker to the right position and still no noise.

Do you ever get noise out of the right speaker or just when you press a stop button?

[luckydog]

track your speakers to the amp and reseat the plug in,

check all amp plug ins also

[RKnarr01]

all of the other speakers work just not that 1 speaker i plug the working speakers into the bad speaker plug in the circuit board at the top of the machine and those dont work either.

I get no button noise out of the right speaker either. i think its the norm. Mike : )

[RKnarr01]

vgc when do you get noise, also do you get button noise from the left speaker?

[vgc]

Hmmm, maybe the noise is all coming from the bottom. kind of hard to test fully as that is one of my machines that is being used as part of my pachislo stand. see top pic here :

its the one on the bottom. The top one sold and my other has its reels out awaiting bulbs. Im betting your machine is probably fine. Mike : )

[RKnarr01]

im hoping its fine

[RKnarr01]

if anyone else has this machine let me know if you get any noise from the top right speaker when you go to stop the reels by pressing the buttons.

I have a L-pad on the lower speaker, so i turned it completely off and played it with only the upper speakers (1K resistor mods) have sound from both upper speakers when pushing each button...sorry.

[RKnarr01]

thats what i thought thanks, i might have to give milt a call

[vgc]

Ok well, i moved a machine and opened mine up and turned down the bottom speaker. Yep sound from both upper speakers, but I would not have known if I didnt turn the bottom all the way down. the upper speakers are very quiet compared to the lower. Mike : )

[RKnarr01]

looks like ill have to call milt ive tried everything, is there a way to get the plastic cover off of the box where the speakers plug into at the top of the machine?

[Chris V]

Why do you have to get the plastic cover off as the speaker plugs right into the side....very easy to unplug. It must be an issue with these machines as I have a fire drift that the top right speaker was bad. I RMA'd it (the speaker) back to grandview. It didnt work when I plugged it into the left side either. While it sounds ok with it gone, it sounds even better when it is working. Mine was intermitten until it finally died.

Try flipping the speaker volume connector up and down a few times to see if you are just not making a good connection.

ive talked to rob at pachislousa and he told me he believed its a blown amp, i was trying to get the plastic cover off so that i could take only the circuit board to milt's and not have to cart the whole machine around.

[RKnarr01]

I took the board to Milt and he said he'll take care of it, its nice to have a lifetime warranty with a product

...and so close you don't have to use USPS, FedEx, UPS or even the new one in the yellow truck, DHS... whatever.

I got a Firedrift yesterday and just tried it, mine too doesn't seem to have sound from the upper right speaker. :confused:

[Si7]

Just checked it with a multimeter - speaker is open circuit (amp is OK) Anyone here from the UK with a Pachislo speaker for sale

Try your local auto parts store. I redid my Terminator with two from Autozone. Works great.
