I'm currently restoring a Gorgar and need help finding some parts...

I noticed someone got lazy when a wire popped out of the edge connector so rather then replacing it, they trimmed it and soldered the wire to the pole instead. I got one from marco but it doesn't have the latch on the other side. Would that be safe to use? Does someone know where to find a 9 pin edge connector with the latch?

I'm also looking for a red cap for the service button on the coin door.

I've put in so much work to machine and somehow can't find those two parts for sale... lol thanks in advance everyone.

Have you checked Great Plains Electronics, Mouser, Ks Arcade?

Thanks for the response bluespin! I did found the edge connector here (https://www.moneymachines.com/product/9-pin-molex-kk-type-connector-housing-for-pinball-machines/)

I'm still trying to find the red cap for the controls and/or the assembly with the cap included.

Bump for the red caps

Something like this:

I haven't bought this as I picked up a bunch of clearance switch arrays that were originally for either a computer or a video game, and the caps on those pulled right off and went on fine onto the WMS switches.

There were a ton of hits off a google search for switch caps you can measure the switch (or if you have one on another machine already, pull that to get the specs).
