This is a great game. I have had two of them over the years.
The first plug (3rd picture)is to the coin door. It will start the game (assuming all other connections are correct)
The second plug is to the knocker. Not too difficult to win on this game, but the "knock" is also satisfying.
Good luck with it

A knocker is a solenoid that whacks the side of the machine when you get a free
game. They can be quite loud and sometimes people disconnect them.

Concerning the lights, there are two types of lighting circuits; general illumination
which are always on and controlled lamps that turn on when various features
are activated. If you look under the play filed, general illumination lamps
will all be connected together. Often with bare wire.

Its a good idea with older machines like this to take some sand paper
to the solder blob on each bulb and if there is corrosion on the screw
part of the base, spiff that up as well. Over time a layer of non-conductive
crud can collect on these surfaces. Also inspect the button in each socket.
Corrosion (often a white powder) can coat these and it needs to be cleaned
to make good contact.

You may already know this....

ps-beautiful game in great condition!

The bulb circuits are all parallel meaning bulbs are in dependant. If one blows only that bulb will be affected. If none of the bonus lights are working it’s more likely to be a problem with the bonus control rather than the bulbs. You’ll need to look at the bonus Selector unit and the trigger relays (as well as the play field switches that trigger it). You’ll need to get and learn how to use a volt/ohm meter pretty quick as that will be your friend. Good luck, the game looks fab.

Congrats!! Here is a great site for info, lingo, schematic reading info, etc. Bookmark!! http://www.pinrepair.com/em/index1

Congrats! What a great game and back story.

I really, really, really recommend that you read the information on the Pinrepair.com link posted above before proceeding too much further. Learn what to do and what not to do.

This forum is littered with posts from first timers who think they’re doing the right thing and end up making things worse. A lot of times big problems and game malfunctions can be caused by just one switch that is out of adjustment.

I would also consider getting the game fully working before “restoring” it. Again, lots of projects for sale from people who have big ideas of restoring a game and end up with a half finished project.

Don’t mean to be a downer, just wanted to give you some modest advice. You’ve got a great game and you’ll have a lot of fun getting it going again if you take your time!

Good luck!

Very nice original game - even has the original coin box, which is super rare.

Does not look like it needs any restoring.

Just wax the playfield and new rubbers.

Remember the enemy of good is better.

100% right.
