usuallyjust bad bulbs or a loose wire on the plastic connection block

Yep, double check all the connections to make sure they haven't been dislodged.

Did you replace the reel bulbs with the machine still switched on?

the reel lamp drives are on reel driver board,if there is no bad connections on the reels/lamps wiring, it could be those lamp drives have blown.
