Quoted from blizzardrunner:I was wondering If anyone had any pictures of which wires go to which pins on the Molex connectors, and also how they are routed through the machine back to the main harness under the playfield.

Hi Luke,
When I get home, I will take as many pics as you need. 6 pm eastern i'll post them for you.
Quoted from blizzardrunner:I am assuming that it will meet up with the rest of the harness under the top left side of the playfield, as that is where all my cut wires seem to be. If it is not too much to ask, could I get a shot of where my missing wires connect back to the harness?

Not a problem.
Quoted from Rickwh:This is the best thing about pinside! Helping out other peeps in a jam. Bravo!
You said it Rich. That's what it's all about.
Luke, if you look at the 2nd pic from the top, the colors go from top left. Your left. 2 red/gray's, yellow/blue,2 gray/browns then 2 gray/oranges. That's the top 4 pins.
Bottom 4 from your left : 2 gray/yellows, 2 gray/blues, 2 gray/violets then 2 gray/greens.

Quoted from blizzardrunner:Awesome! Thank you very much, especially for the wiring at the connectors! I knew it was gonna be hard to get those pics! I really appreciate it!
No prob. So you can see the wiring clear? Tell me if you can't and I'll read them off. Now you need the other side right ?
Quoted from rgb635:RampShot11- How do you like this game? I am thinking of trying to get one? I love the Gottliebs!
I love it!!! I think it's one of the most underrated pins out there. It's relatively easy but still challenging enough. The 9 ball play after the final round is awesome! They have it on the pinball arcade if you want to try it first. You have playstation or Xbox ?
Quoted from rgb635:Naw no video console but I think Im going to look into the CBW after I finish my TX Sector.
It's also available on the iPhone , iPad and android.
This is the other side but I cannot get the lamp board to unscrew , they bothe just keep spinning so I'm gonna have to loosen the main ramp to get a better shot of the connecter. Will have to try later , gotta get my daughter to bed first. Here is the best pic I could get right now

image-213.jpgQuoted from blizzardrunner:Thanks, the pictures help, and I appreciate you reading them off like that. From there I should be able to pinpoint them on the schematic and figure out where each lead comes from. I've never played this one, I knew I wanted an early 90's DMD game with nice features at a project price. Can't wait to get it working again!
You will love it I'm sure. You need any parts? I have a bunch for it.
Quoted from blizzardrunner:Unless you already have it all back together, would you mind reading them off like you did with the first pic? It helped me verify what I was seeing, as it is kinda hard to tell how many stripes of which color there are. Thanks!
Yes, I never got around to loosening the ramp to access that connecter, but I will when I get home later.
Quoted from blizzardrunner:Yeah, actually I have a list of parts. need the flippers, cabinet buttons for the flippers, u8 chip, opto board (MA-1558), another board (MA-1334) and if you notice in my pic in the first post, the shaft for the 8 ball motor is sticking up through the playfield. I have the blue plastic piece that holds the 8 ball, but nothing else, no kicker. Happen to have any of that?
I have the plunger for the 8 ball and the mini cue stick. Also have the coil and sleeve for the 8 ball shooter. The bracket that attaches to the shaft I do not have but someone should have it in stock. I'll look for it and let you know.
Quoted from blizzardrunner:Ok, great! I believe all I need is the bracket, coil, and sleeve. I actually have the mini cue stick ( although it could use some TLC). Any idea how much you want for the coil and sleeve?
Your going to need that main bracket too and I have no idea who has it. That one might be a s.o.b. to find. Any of the suppliers I checked today, did not have it. I'll take a pic later of it for you. I'll be home in 20 mins and I'll send you some more pics.
Quoted from blizzardrunner:I knew something would pop up like that eventually, a hard to find part missing...
I know. I'll keep an eye out for it for you. You need the colors red off to you on this connecter ?
Quoted from blizzardrunner:Awesome pics! Thanks, no unfortunately I don't have that bracket... it looks pretty simple though, from the pics. Maybe I can make one if I can't find one...
If you can weld you might be able to make one out of a few different coil brackets. Let me know if you can't find it and I'll get the exact measurements and take better pics. I would find out the exact part number and call Steve. He might be able to help.
Quoted from Dawson:Cool I just saw this post , I would love to send you my dmd power supply , would you test it in your machine ?
Sure, pm me.
Quoted from blizzardrunner:Yes, if you wouldnt mind reading them off, that would be helpful. It is hard to know for sure the difference between orange/orange/ purple and orange / purple/purple, etc. just from the pictures. They do help though! Thanks, I will look for the bracket. If I can't find it then I will ask for the dimensions and set off fabricating one.
Thanks!
No problem. I will try to head home around lunch, but if not I will read them off when I get out of work.
Also, I'll post the pictures of the dimensions of the bracket just in case.
Quoted from blizzardrunner:Ok, no rush I probably won't get a chance to work on it again until tomm. night or saturday anyway. With the bracket dimensions I should be good to go. How does it mount to the shaft is it just a set screw? Thanks!
Yes it has a round collar with a set screw. I'll try to get a close pic of it for you.
Colors on second connecter from top left , red/gray, yellow/violet, brown/gray then orange/gray.
Bottom row from left to right. Yellow/gray, blue/gray, violet/gray then green/gray.
Quoted from blizzardrunner:Un related question... what happens if my sound board has sound chips from a street fighter??
Will I have no sound at all? Or will my CBW be yelling at me to "shoot the flipper!"?
You need to get the correct CBW sound roms.
