Hi, I recently got my old 1975 Bally Knockout pinball out of storage, as I hadn't played it for over 10 years. I had problems with the backglass lighting up, so I removed the left hand flipper switch to inspect it, as from memory of this problem years ago, I thought it had something to do with that switch. Before doing this I copied down how the switch was wired and assembled, but somehow I have misplaced the piece of paper I wrote this on, and now can not get it working correctly, so I'm not sure if I have reassembled it correctly? Can anyone tell me or provide a photo of how it should go back together showing the wiring? I did take a couple of photos before pulling it completely apart which I've attached, and it looks like it's reassembled correctly, but obviously not, as the photos didn't show the wiring very clearly, which is what I had written down on the paper that's now lost. Thanks.

Hope this helps.

I'd ask for a favor in return. If you pull off the c-clip on the back of the plastic button and slide it out, can you take a photo of the the button and pieces there? Pieces like spring and washers. I have two Bally games of this era and both have way different 'pieces' for each button. I looked at the parts catalog and it is not very clear.

Thanks
