Hi all

I have a Club Viva Mexico machine thats developed a weird problem..When you first switch it on its fine, then after about 10 - 15 mins or so all the lights just go out on the machine. The machine itself still plays fine, ie reels go round, sound is ok, led works fine but just no lights, so you cant see when you have holds or where you are when you get on the middle board etc.

If you switch it off and on again the lights sometimes come back on but again only for a few minutes then go off...anyone any ideas??

Thanks all

Chris

it will be the power supply at fault, possibly just a dry joint at the output connectors, you will need to open the power supply up (with power off) remove inner board and solder up the non componant side, if your not sure just get a replacement
