Road Show Column 4

Hi,
All the bulbs in my Road Show located in column 4 are out. I checked
the wires etc and they all look good. I checked the manual and aside
from showing the lamp matrix I can't figure out where the problem may
be. Is there a fuse for this specific column?

Also, in test mode when testing the flippers should the flipper be
raised or lowered when testing the "Hold" position? I assume it should
be raised, but I'm not sure. Of the three flippers, only one "holds"
up during the test. Should this one be down, or the others be up?
And, how do I fix?

I took a bulb from the border of the states in Road Show and it was a
#47. But in the manual there are no bulbs of that kind, just #555 and
#44. It worked however, and I put it in the extra ball light, which
should be a #555. Have the numbers changed? Are these the same type
bulbs?

Thank you.

Is the "board" in the backbox, or cabinet? And, how do I know which
part of the board controls column 4?

#47 is a little higher voltage than a #44 and will be a little dimmer but
easier on your GI lines.

Test mode flipper hold doesn't do much, don't worry about it if you flippers
work good.

Column 4 bulbs out, start at the board, do you have power leaving the board
? If not you have a board problem, if you have power going out, follow it
until you figure out where it stops. LTG

http://www.marvin3m.com/fix.htm Clay's site, and your manual. Solenoid
driver board is in the backbox. All else fails, figure out the wire colors
on column 4 and then find that connector on the driver board. LTG
