Faulty Control Relay

Solution:

Located in the Tom England Control Box are two cube style relays that control power to the 5-Pin String machines original ball elevator motor. One relay powers on the motor when an odd lane is issued, and one relay for when the even lane is issued. These relays will be located side by side and inserted into a blue base relay holder.

If the motor does not come on when only one lane is issued, locate the two relays in the box and swap them. If the problem moves to the opposite machine and the motor will power up with the original problem machine the relay is defective.

Note: Keep in Mind that Tom England’s placement of the relays in the box may differ. They may be located at the top of the box, or the bottom of the box. Use the Photo attached to see how the relays look and have the customer locate where they are placed.
