Gottlieb Solar Ride (Gottlieb, 1979) problems

[DaveL]

Hi guys I don't know if anyone can assist I'm trying to get an old Gottlieb system 1 machine going, rewired the coils and purchased a new ni wumpf CPU. Thought it was ready to go, plugged in the power and blew the 25v 5 amp Slo-Blo fuse. I'm praying I haven't just fried the new CPU. So, any ideas what the fuse is connected to and what I need to replace now?

check and see if there is a bridge rectifier wired right after the fuse that blows. the bridge rectifier is shorted blowing the fuse. replace bridge rectifier and test.
