I have a pinball that is dead, and I am trying to find the issue. I have replaced the fuses, so I was planning on replacing the power cord. This is my first pin to repair, so I made a rookie mistake. I noticed the power cord had a molex connector, and I pulled the wires out of it. This resulted in the metal pins getting stuck in the connector... I cannot find this connector at Fry's electronics.

Could I bypass using a Molex connector, and just wire the power cord directly? It seems like common sense, but I want to make sure that I do not compromise repairing this machine any further...

Thank you!

Thanks for the info.

I tried a pin extractor tool, but I couldn't get them to come out

I appeciate the info! Forceflow provided some links for connectors, and I have tried to go through the manual, but have had no luck as to what kind of connector I should buy. Any ideas?

This is a Gottlieb game. I am dealing with a Street Fighter 2 pin. I will look into the splice connector.

Ill let you guys know how it goes.
Thanks!

Watched some splice connector videos, and I really did not understand the process. I have decided to wait a day, and I ordered the correct Molex minifit Jr.

I'll do it the right way
