This is a great thread with excellent pics. I've learned a lot, and it inspired me to pick up a Full House project. It's a nonworking machine with a severed power cord, so I haven't seen it powered up. I don't have any confidence in a previous owner's wiring around the flipper mech (the left flippers switch stack was installed backwards), so I'm asking for reference pictures.

I'm going to order a flipper kit from PBR, but I'd like to see how a working machine is wired. I'm looking for pictures that can show me the wires on the flipper coil and switch stack. I'd also like to see are pictures of how the sling shots wires are connected.

For instance, should a wire connect the flipper coil and the sling shot coil?

This what I'm seeing on my Full House.

Quoted from PM_Jeremy:

You're welcome. Post a pick of your wiring when you get it done.

Quoted from PM_Jeremy:

That last pic of yours showing the switches - those things are really mangled

I went from this.

To this.

It took awhile to get the wiring done, but your pictures made all the difference. Thanks, again. The flippers and pops are much stronger after being rebuilt.

Quoted from PM_Jeremy:

I had to max out the switch gap just to get a chance to hit the ball with the flippers. Food for thought.

I had to do the same thing.

This game is a lot more fun to play than I anticipated! I was just going to leave the cabinet alone (it had been sanded and repainted by a PO), but I think it deserves better. So, it's time to make some stencils for my first respray...

I don't want to hijack this thread, but I wanted to post that I almost got the respray done. I just ran out of time. It's too cold to spray paint in the garage in December... hopefully I'll get the green W design on the front of the cab in the spring. (The red isn't so splotchy in real life).

Cad-kid, your thread was invaluable to me. I used so much of your advice and your ideas. For example, I have the exact same power switch set-up now.

Thanks again!
