Alien Poker
Williams, 1980I recently bought an Alien Poker and I'm in progress of fixing it up. I've noticed a few un-used holes behind the drop targets and the scoring switch there. There's 2 T nuts under the playfield, I assume there's a part or 2 missing. Can someone take a photo of under the plastic or tell me what parts are behind the scoring switch?
On mine, there's one rubber that goes around the 3 outer posts. I suspect the 2 inner posts are there to prevent a hard struck ball from pushing the rubber too far back and either breaking the switch or getting trapped inside the triangle.
Quoted from Toyguy:On mine, there's one rubber that goes around the 3 outer posts. I suspect the 2 inner posts are there to prevent a hard struck ball from pushing the rubber too far back and either breaking the switch or getting trapped inside the triangle.
Correct! 
Quoted from Theonlylilo:Correct!
Absolutely correct. I'm missing those 2 critical posts. Switch is definitely getting pushed back, and getting lots of air balls. hasn't got stuck yet.
Thanks all!
