SYMPTOM
Problems with the lower general illumination
lights blowing the fuse on the board. These are
the lights that also run the coin door lights.

SOLUTION
A quick fix would be to wrap the handle and/ or
the right coin lamp socket with electrical tape
and the problem should disappear. (Also check
that the socket itself is not bent or its connectors
shorted).
NoTE
All late production games should have shrink
wrap tubing on the handle to avoid the problem
in the future.

CAUSE
The most likely cause of the blown lower G .I. fuse
on Funhouse is the locking handle for the front
molding is touching one of the G .I. sockets on the
front door. This can happen due to normal
vibration when the coin door is shut.
