Pinball Pro in Whirlwind - did I miss something??

Archived from groups: rec.games.pinball (More info?)

Installed the Pinball Pro speaker system in my Whirlwind tonight -
finished with NO sound, just a hum. Tripple-checked installation
against instructions and can find no flaw - anybody else run into this?
My kit did not include any alligator clips (like the instructions asked
for) but the spades shuold have been fine. I'm a noob here (obviously)
but it seems to me that the original sound output cable that I
disconnected from the original speakers SHOULD have come into play
somehwere during the install....

Any guidance from fellow pin-heads would be greatly appreciated!!!

Hook it back up original and see if it will
work.

You may have damaged something during
installation, or the replacement speaker
damaged your sound board.

Check the resistance of the "new" speaker...

Move the cone of the PP speaker. If it makes a scratching noise or
seems to be contacting something (scraping) it is shorted out and has
cooked your sound board. Time for Clive and a call to Don at PP.

Check the sound volume on your game (I had mine down for some freak
reason and got the same effect). Thinking it was my wiring job I check
everything and had to change my mind thinking to the simple basics.

Just for the record, all is resolved. As expected it was human error,
I thought the plug went into the sound overlay board rather than the
sound board (duh). All is working great and rocks like a quarry!!!
Highly reccomend the upgrade to anyone interested.
