Title: Pinball lights not working Post by: Dio 70 on September 20, 2011, 10:55:14 am I have noticed that some bulbs on the playfield and coin door are not lighting up. These lights worked about three weeks ago. I tried changing the bulbs and that did not work.
Any ideas what would cause the lights not to work? I have a Taxi machine. I did turn on the bell through the game adjustment menu. It's pretty cool to hear a bell ring during game play, but I am not sure if that caused certain lights to go dark. Any help is appreciated. This is my first pinball so I am a novice at pinball repair.

In the manual it will show which matrix of lights are on what transistor.

Also you should reflow the solder on the GI connectors Solenoid Driver PCB and any other points that appear to have cold solder
