With respect to the power problem it would likely also be useful to check components with the thermal cameral
Initial symptom: power was showing as zero watts on out power strips. Our plug-in meter showed 130W but 4A, which makes no sense. Caleb noticed that the transformers were unusually hot. There could be a serious power problem, so we have unplugged it. A clamp ammeter is on the way to see if we can get a clearer power reading. All power wiring should be traced and verified.

Litany of issues:
- Ball can get stuck in the right lane as pictured, resetting the game will eject the ball
- Several rollovers and pop bumpers not scoring as they should.
- Cannot add more than one player
- Game sometimes starts with flippers/playfield inactive
Status changed: Fixing → Good
TILT light is constantly on, though the machine never appears to be in tilt state
Bend the metal playfield holder tabs so that reassembly is less maddening
Opened up and rescued ball. Seems to be OK now.
