I have fixed worse.... go for it. It will just take time, & you will get much better with schematics when you are done. At least all of the wiring is there...
#1- get a schematic from PBR
#2- find an old Gottleib wiring harness from a parted out machine so that you have correct color coded wire to splice in. I have bought several off of Ebay.
Quoted from monsonb:I've got a less than desirable machine in my garage that I brought back to "running condition" after investing more hours than it is worth.
I'm not done spending time on it, and although it will always be a POS, it might be my favorite machine.
Fix it and have fun!
Exactly. No better way to learn pin repair than bringing a basket case back to life. And the feeling when you start it up for the first time & it works is like none other.
Quoted from goingincirclez:So I didn't start a fire, and our patient has a beating heart. Still a long way to go, but this is an encouraging sign.
I love these extreme project pins. Nothing like the feeling of getting them up & running.
