We had school bowing start today, what fun! [img]/content/btubb/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/mad.gif[/img] . The busiest time of the year. There are no tech people at the place for these sessions. Here is what our lane 8 did today:
I guess that a pin was stuck in the table the motor over heated and kicked off. The spot sylinoid got very hot! At this point the owner said lets wait for Pat.
When I arrived I reset the motor, it humms and kicks off. So I got the spare and tested it on the sweep plug and it went. I then tested it on the table plug and it started fine. Next I swapped the gear boxes (Westinghouse the good ones!) The table worked one time. Then it would not go and would kick off the overload. League starts in 25 min.
I ran through checking for problem nothing obvious and tested the 1st gearbox on another lane and it worked fine. I then decided to go back to orriginal. It worked fine for three run thoughs. Then I cycled and spotted pins. Fine.
I turned it off and started it for league and no soap. Same thing.
Here is all that I have looked at so far:
Gear box is fine on other lanes
Chassis is fine Traded and swaped back to orrigiinal "B" chassis are very tempramental.
Checked my plugs and none of the wires are burned that I can see.
I checked my capacitors and they are fine
The table is not binding that I can tell and it work intermitently
What next? Thanks for the help guys!! [img]/content/btubb/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif[/img]
