GB Slimer won't move

[PAX]

So Slimer on GB pro has decided to stop doing his thing.
Hit the G H O S T target and the arm doesn't come down

Tech Alert doesn't show any problem exists and Slimer motor test shows this:


On the underside, no loose wires and connectors all seem good




Was behaving a little erratic before finally stopping altogether.
Any help appreciated
Cheers

Does it work in test mode? It could be a node board issue…

Doesn't do a lot in test mode, certainly no movement, so possibly a node board issue.
Cheers for the link

Put it running in test mode then look for a dodgy connection, I had the same problem and it was a broken connection under a solder joint that had heat shrink over it. Look for joins that have movement when slimer moves....

The arm doesn't operate in game specific test mode and slimer doesn't register in switch test mode so maybe it is a node board problem.
I'll look for any other potential issues also.

Does anyone on here do node board diagnostics/testing? Not an easy task I'm assuming

Cheers
