Anyone know anyone who is good fixing late Gottlieb machines? My normal fix it guy is more of a Bally, Williams, Stern guy.

Specifically I'm looking for someone to fix a Gottlieb Joker Poker. I've been looking for a while, but I'm only finding fixer-uppers.

It's the first Gottlieb with digital display and 4-- players. Any ideas on people who may be able to help with fixing?

I don't have it yet. The one I am looking at the guy says (my comments in parentheses):

Machine is being sold as is. Playfield is in good condition as pictured. Known problems; The kings drop target coil and driver need replacing. (coil isn't a big deal, not sure about the driver)

Displays light up (good)

and game will not start (not good).

Original 5 volt power supply replaced with aftermarket. (should be OK)

I think it might be dirty pins on the connectors but I am not positive.

(That's all I've got to go on. Machine looks good in the pictures, but Don't know if I want to spend the $ and drive 5 hours for something I can't get going.)

Thanks!

If I get it, is it OK to email you some questions?

PDMAN,

Thanks for the reply!

Do you have to use the included sound driver on the 4 in 1 PCB or can you get the special features (high score/skill shot) but keep the bells?

Thanks!
