Quoted from Chalkey:I think people mostly convert to the previous bally style, maybe someone else can chime in.
Is there a popular assembly that can still be purchased ?
My Special Force flippers are still kinda lame after a rebuild.
Thx.

Quoted from Tallon:Bally uses a spring washer on its coils to help keep tension
My coils are definitely loose, who has a parts diagram with washer position and part number?
Thanks.
My Special Force game has damaged playfield hangers that are poorly welded back together. No idea how both are so damaged but they allow the playfield to move around when playing as they are so weak.
I looked at my regular parts places and do not see any replacements.
Anyone have a source or part number I can use to look around?
Generic pic for reference.
Thanks.

Good info, I was about to email him last night but I thought I would post here first.
Thanks.
New problem with my Special Forces machine today.
Looks like the right sling and the right pop bumper has stopped working.
Both make the activation sound when trigged manually but no solenoid action.
Neither work in the solenoid test, bright flash 2 and 5 look to be offline too.
My schematics are pretty bad but I am hunting around for a common point of failure.
Any suggestions on where to look ?
Thanks.
Quoted from Inkochnito:Check the in game menu settings.
The slingshots can be deactivated.
Only my right sling is not working but I double checked the settings and the sling shots are enabled.
The right pop bumper is not working either.
Is there a common connection or driver associated with the right pop and right sling?
Kind of odd they both stopped at the same time.
I might put a new TIP102 in Q16 and see if that helps.
Quoted from Inkochnito:Do you have power (43Vdc) at both ends of the "broken" coils?
Thanks for the help, here is what I found.
My mistake when checking power at the coil was using the common at the coil.
The shared point of failure was a common that was found loose but the schematic is not correct for my machine. If the schematic was correct I would have had a different set of coils out.
The break was one of the working middle pop coils wires had broken off.
My right slingshot has the single wire, not the left pop as the schematic shows - so its all wrong on my machine .

According to Todd - "one lousy little light bulb".
Quoted from CanadianPinball:IIRC it's not used on SF. It was a generic harness for most 6803 games.
I looked at my SF and that plug is not being used.
Just hangs there like yours.
Quoted from EZ-Rhino:taped up front corners from factory on right and left corners of the cabinet?
I looked at all the pics I could find and I don't see any with tape - but I do not have any experience with this unit.

Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:Does anyone in America fix 6803 boards?
I have used Chris and Coin Op Cauldron with great results.
