Just great the only schematic I can find is in German, so maybe a bit different.

Your power problem. First if you loose all power then check the line fuse holder and fuse, remember this is the same voltage as the mains so turn off the machine and unplug when checking.

The next thing to check is the “Betrugs schutz relais” remember my schematic is in German, the translation is “Fraud protection relay”. If you have this RE on your machine it will cause loss of ALL power. See Schematic below. It is likely called anti cheat RE.

Check all slam tilt switches, they are switches with a weight on them located in places like the door and under play field. Make sure they have good clearance, if you like stick a bit od card between the contacts to stop them from touching.

Can you take a pic for Question two. You can upload here below the text box

Q3

3) Regarding the match feature and knocker: I don't understand how the match feature is supposed to work.

If you look at the 0-9 score reel you will see it too has a disk that looks like the 0-9 unit stepper. So the machine does know what number is showing. If the is a match it increments the credit stepper unit.

Konvertieren Englisch auf Deutsch sollte, dass und umgekehrt arbeiten. ^^^^^
Viel Glück.

Convert English to German, should that work, and vice versa. ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Good luck.

Got it, war ich auf, um es

Oder wenn er Deutsch kennt, brauchen er die translator nicht

Prost

Any idea of where the knocker is on the schematic? What's knocker in German?

The knocker coil is energised via the credit unit EOS switch. Fortunately a lot of the basics are the same on all machines. I think this is it here....

Ok das ist immer hart, arn't wir ein Haufen Klugscheißer. Vielen Dank, Herr Google

Die Dogies Besitzer war nicht in der Lage, den schematischen es in Deutsch von der IPDB Website ist so geschrieben, dachte, dies würde das Ticket zu übersetzen.

Hey w2w Sie glaube, die Leute würden Schütteln den Kopf, wenn wir Entsendung wie diese einmal in eine Weile begonnen.
Wtihout zeigt ihnen diese Übersetzer.

Hope Robin gets a giggle out of our poor effort here.

It is funny though.^^

I have also noticed that the wire numbering is the much the same too, this could help us here.
Wire 27-7 is the knocker on other Bally schematics.

Also i just remembered that in the rules of Pinside, you must use English. Hoffe, dass wir nicht bekommen, band

what was that about fortune cookies????

In the States after a meal at a Chinese restaurant you get fortune cookies and they translate Chinese lettered proverbs to english on the little papers they put inside them.

I think this bit is funny!!!!

"Fortune cookies are often served as a dessert in Chinese restaurants in the United States and some other countries, but are absent in China. "

Hey Textrivers, I will do my best to use english here. No offense guys, but I guess I am the only monolingual person here. I'll answer Number 4 for now. Yes it should have a bell. In a search for the missing match unit bell for my Bally On Beam, I learned this......

Those bells are super hard to find. There is a threaded stud at the top of this bell and it is a bit smaller than a standard 3" bell. Operators would often remove these bells due to complaints from the business owners where the pinball machines lived. That bell is on the one point match unit and is super loud and constant! It is also easy to remove. Just reach in and twist the bell and unthread it. No tools were required. From what I have learned, it seems that these bells were simply discarded. Good luck finding an exact replacement. If you do, please let me know where. I would like to put the correct part in mine too. Right now I have retrofit a gottlieb 3" bell. It did not fit properly and I had to "work with it" a little.

Figures ,they probably ban them there.

So is it installed ,how does it sound?

Night all, midnight for me!!

Don't know how it sounds. Head is still on the floor. Playfield is still stripped. Waiting for tumbler media so I can polish up the screws and small playfield hardware before reassembly. Should get the tumbler media tomorrow and then start reassembly this weekend.

Ugh... Sounds like work. I just got my Capt. Card going. Still needs a bit of cleaning though. The "fun" never ends, does it?

Don't forget the "lucky" numbers they give you as well... Although I guess you can count yourself lucky if you don't end up with stomach pains and bowl time after eating the rest of the greasy offerings....

Mainly a product made in the USA and China will have none of that.

Yep ,no freedom for the Chicoms.

I would expect them to ring two different tones. I havent checked mine yet. I'll smack each of them while I'm at lunch today (head is still on the floor). Hope the gottlieb bell sounds different from the Bally bell that was still in the machine when I got it. We shall see.....I mean hear!!!

Again, I speak only English. If I were to speak another language it would be English. I've got too much other stuff to learn. I have German friends and I sometimes use Google Translate with their facebook posts. It rarely helps.

Bells!!!

The larger bell mounted with its own solenoid rings lower "D flat" than the match unit mounted bell (Gottlieb replacement) "E" About one and a half steps on the scale apart from each other.

Downloaded a tuner app just to be able to say that. I'm a drummer, not a percussionist. I would have no idea if not for the app store and my iphone.

Is the loose wire yellow?
Ps not Portuguese too, i'm struggling with the German stuff!

Not sure but this could be a 93 wire, bit hard to read. Look at the #3 RESEST RE. find the make /break switch with Green/ yellow wire and Yellow/Red wire. See if there is a missing wire the Grey/yellow

Question 2)
This may be the wrong way to go about it, but the way I see it you have three options for that loose wire. One tab, the other tab, or both tabs! Grab a test lead with alligator clips and trial and error it! The way I see it, the worst you can do is blow a fuse if something locks on and you don't release the alligator clip fast enough. My guess is that wire should be soldered to both tabs. Just my guess.

I was wandering if it was 83 too, but i don't see a black wire on the RE in your pics.

Yes, I've seen this behavior before on the pinball ninja site. I believe it was a Bally joust that had a shorted coil and it would knock power down to the point where the hold relay would let go. If you are not a member of the ninja blog, now is as good a time as any! The repair I'm thinking of is pretty recent. Within the last few months!
