tech: TZ does not power on

[Guest]

My TZ in my house has been working great. Go to turn it on this
morning for a few games and nothing... the game does not even come on
.... make a sound nothing.
I checked that power is coming to the outlet.

Not sure what to check first. Never had absolutely nothing happen when
you turn the power switch on a game before.

Thanks for any help

Is the main fuse in the game the one by the outlet inside the game you
could plug a lite or something else into to work on the game? If so do
you turn it one way or the other to get it out.

thanks

Check the main fuse inside the game. Check to make sure the cord is pushed
all the way in at the back of the machine.

The plug is not lose. I took the main fuse holder off, but the fuse
would not come out. After using two very little flat head screw
drivers I was able to grab it and get it out. It had some sore of
sticky stuff around both ends ... not sure what that is from. Tested
it with a meter and it works fine.
Powered on the game and it came right on ... very odd. Go to play a
game and the left flippers are very weak ... and sort of bounce once to
the full up position.
Must be some sort of power issue going on.
