Can someone take a pic of the mist motor lamp assembly? Just bought my BSD and can't get the light to work. I ordered 1 and it appears to be different than the one on the machine.
Thanks
Jaybird
Quoted from nerdygrrl:
Edit: I just reread and saw that you needed the lamp assembly. I'll try and grab some pics later
Thanks nerdygirl I actually meant the lamp on the magnet that follows the ball
Hope these help Jaybird.
It does thanks much

Quoted from freddy:
jaybird did you try changing the diode on the lamp socket?
Yeah I tried that. It was a no go, the socket that was sent has only the 2 prongs, this one looks like a 3 pronger
Thanks BigD. That C7 capacitor on the 24 opto board was it. I love $1.50 radio shack fixes. Ball is no longer just dropping out of right mist gate.
It appears my problem might of been 2 fold. After repairing board the ball held, which it never did before. As I played the ball would occasionally still fall. I put a "shim" where the ball rests in the right gate and it hasn't dropped since, telling me my opto was out of line slightly. Anyways problem(s) appear to be fixed. Now I can finally do what I bought the game for, to get my ass kicked!
Quoted from aobrien5:
Make sure the ball is sitting in front of the opto. Some people have to bend the guide it sits against a bit.
Yeah I didn't want to bend anything, the opto housing is a PITA to
get at though.

I bought my BSD with regular flippers, I am going to buy lightning repro's. I have read varying reports of durability issues with certain types/colors. Anyone with suggestions on whom to buy from?
Thanks
Does anyone know where I can find target decals? Pinball decals has them for $30, was wondering if anywhere else has a set.
Thanks
Quoted from Erik:
you don't like the reservoir tip?
Too funny, Ramses would be proud!
Man, I log in and see 45 new posts since yesterday and I think "damn, something wicked cool must be going down". I click and it's just a bunch of guys talking about their tips....
Man aobrien5 you have a really clean shooter lane!

I would like to thank all of the pinsiders that have contributed to tech information along this thread. I have owned this machine for 2-3 months, and an finally getting super close to having this machine dialed in
if anybody is making custom left copper ball gate switches I am willing to purchase.
thanks people
Nice one of the purest shot games out there
Quoted from gatordad:
Just brought my BSD inside, finished fixing the obvious stuff, CPU battery holder, replaced a few components, replaced a few burnt GI connectors and pins, I'm now play testing for a week a two to find and fix what ever other minor stuff may be wrong.
Playfield is in exceptional shape but very dirty, should shine up great when I'm done, Really starting to like this game.
Nice!! Love my BSD!

This is probably going to sound really stupid but....ok I took a look at my right ramp and did not see those pieces, but I also cant figure out where on earth they would go..I looked at the map on the manual and couldn't figure it out either. Could someone point me in the right direction? Thanks!
Take a pic of area in question and it'd help

Took me nearly 2 years but i joined the club tuesday.
Im having a few issues tho. Is it normal for the glass to rub on the right ramp, and also above the asylum?
No, the hex posts are probably mixed up. Seems to be common issue after a complete shop job.
