Gottlieb Spin Out (Gottlieb, 1975) EM tech HELP!! Startup sequence

[trevorcousineau]

Help!
I'm working on a Gottlieb Spin Out EM machine that won't finish its reset/startup sequence. Score reels reset fine, but after that no ball, flippers inactive, bumpers inactive.

Does someone have the startup sequence from a Spin Out manual that they can share with me... or any ideas where I should start looking?

Cheers,
Trevor

Hmm I bet you its one of those anti cheat switches. Could also be a dirty stepper unit not resetting... Try looking at the schematic and tracing the circuits that are used at coin in and start poking around with a multimeter to see where the circuit loses power after you check all mechanics.. All stepper units should reset easily and the rivets should be shiny clean. You can try turning the control unit motor off if applicable do all the start up procedures manually and checking to see if you have the correct voltage all the way through there should be a common ground wire that you can use to test with.. On my bally county fair its the orange wires but its different for each company I imagine.
