    Hi everyone hope this is the right place to put this. So I was playing my pin and the right sling stuck in the shoot on position. Turned off the game and turned back on. Now the sling won’t work at all. Opened up the playfield and replaced the fuse for that sling (was blown) still nothing. Opened up the back and saw that a transistor looked like it went bad (board was brownish color and smelled bad). Looks like some other parts look dark on it. Is there a place I can send the board to to have it gone through or does someone happen to have a good one?

    Do you have any soldering skills?

    Hopefully it's just that transistor which is a pretty straight forward job

    Boards cost a $&+* ton and sending it out would cost way more than fixing it yourself , those transistors are pretty cheap

    Between me and my brother in law we could solder it. But I’m just concerned about the condition of the board right now it appears not only a transistor got burned but something else did too. I’ll take a picture of it later

    Pic would be good and do you have a multimeter ?

    Here’s a front and back pic of the board. I hope it’s fixable the rest of the board looks clean. I also did notice a risistor that looks odd don’t know if it’s ok or not. You can see it to the right of the brown burn mark.
