Golden Tee Fore Complete 2005 Manual Reset Switch Assistance

[Huskerfan]

I recently bought via FB Marketplace a Golden Tee Fore Complete 2005. When I bought it, the trackball only worked up and down (fixed a loose wire to resolve that), the marquee light didn't work (replaced it) and needed to adjust the voltage (it was showing high, so I adjusted the Suzo happ power supply to get that right). The last remaining issue is the physical switch to turn on/off the machine didn't work. In inspecting the switch, it had a bunch of carbon and scoring on it. I cleaned it up but that didn't solve it. So, I replaced the C1750H toggle with an identical toggle. I made sure it was connected to the same connector it was when I got the machine (to the Suzo Happ LT-200W power supply feed) and still the toggle doesn't work.

Granted, I can plug in the machine and it works just fine. However, I would like to use the physical switch on the top of the GT cab if possible. Any recommendations? I also have a Silver Strike Bowling with the same toggle switch, and it works just fine.

Other specifics about my rig in case that makes a difference: PCB says it is a Model 2011 P/N 2011 Rev 5. It was modified to run off of a compact flash drive and has the Eagle V2.09 boot rom. Again, all works fine so perhaps I am just being nitpicky.

I welcome any feedback/suggestions you might have.

Thanks!

I attached a pic of the C1750H toggle switch by itself. I also upped the same switch in my Golden Tee Fore 2005 Complete and the Silver Strike Bowling. You'll see that the SSB has for alligator clips to the toggle while the GT has only 2. The SSB works fine. The GT toggle does not. I looked through the power supply in the GT and didn't see two additional leads that looked like they had been left off of the toggle switch. Any suggestions on next steps? Thanks!!

C1750H is a double pole single throw toggle switch
Operated with a single on/off up and down action
It has 4 terminals so both live and neutral feeds can be isolated when it’s off ( or two independent live circuits)
Get a multimeter and check you are using two terminals which are open circuit when off and short circuit when on
If you only have two wires the other two terminals can be ignored (( you may be connecting to two incorrect terminals by viewing the switch as “like for like”on the terminal side? ))

Where you have a single pole single throw switch it only isolates the live feed wire (live in one terminal when plugged in to mains and live out on the other terminal when the toggle is activated)

The toggle switch is on top purely to save reaching behind the machine to a hidden wall socket in a room or arcade when needing to turn it on daily / off overnight?

Most large machines have toggle isolator switches fitted somewhere on the cabinet.in addition many of the access doors have an isolation switch to turn off power when the action of opening a door allows non-stay switches to return to an off position ( usually these switches are push to engage : off in a central position : and for engineer purposes pull to re engage on, while a door is open — just info for readers not familiar with door switches)

Hope that helps ?

Thank you! It gives me more ideas and I will explore the cab more later today. Thanks again. I'll report back what I find.

I inspected the cabinet up and down and traced all the wires back to the power supply or the jamma harness. I didn't find any other buttons aside from the service, test, volume up and volume down buttons. Also, the 4-pin toggle at the top of the cab. I took a multimeter to the two leads that were originally attached to the toggle switch. Both had the same AC readings (roughly .04 to .08). Forgive me if I am misreading the meter readings as I'm new to using the meter.

It appears the prior owner did a bunch of upgrades (boot rom 2.09, compact flash drive instead of the hard drive, etc). I wonder if they changed out the harness too. If you think looking into a new jamma harness is worthwhile, I can see about getting one.

In the end, if I can't get the toggle to work, would there be any other solution to turning off the game w/o plugging it back in and out?

Thanks again for your insight and time!

A friend came over and helped me. I completely missed the instructions on the Suzo Happ power supply. There are two on/off switches and when one is trying to use the "remote" start, both of these switches need to be in the off position (as described on the power supply itself). Then, as stated, the continuity on the toggle switch needs to be in sync. Once we got the switches on the power supply correct, the toggle worked as it should.

Thanks for your assistance on this. I really like that I can use the toggle to turn on/off the Golden Tee.
