I LED my freddy. One strange thing is the tv doesnt not like a color changer there. Even one from cointaker. Mostly stays one color.

Quoted from pinballman3:Hello all, i have posted in the regular part but have got no response. Just wandering if anyone here might have experienced a problem with your freddy like i am having with mine. Mine seems to play fine and all works well. The problem i am having is at the end of each game it scores like 100 million or more when it should not. I can lose the balls on purpose and say only score 6 million and at the end of the game it will give me 100 million or more. I would appreciate any help. Thanks
If it's not saying jackpot all the time. I would check the service menu. See what switch stuck closed. Maybe your soles switches are closed or to close and constintly open and closing. I have a Freddy it's in pretty good shape.
Quoted from toyotaboy:black paint was pretty thick and would have taken forever to sand, so I took my dremel to it and lightly ground the surface. I'm thinking maybe I don't need to paint it, the black marks left behind give it a nice tempered dirty look. Photos:
This example looks pretty nice. Maybe, add claw marks on door.
Yes, I have a Freddy too. I will get back with you. Hope I can help. I think that is normal. It's always ok to ask questions. Their are good people here to help with concerns. Did you see the TNT you tube video on refurb the claw flipper? The lexon or plexy glass is pretty tough, you can find at Lowe's get the red label is tough. Under 6 bucks. Cut new finger's on band saw.

Quoted from finnflash:I bought mine in 2005 and it did have the original glove intact. Fast forward 11 years and it finally broke off. Funny thing is i refused to let anyone use it, and it broke a blade just flipping the glove after the ball passed it (or at least thats what my 9 year old told me)
Pinball resource, steve young has replacement gloves for sale, too. Less expensive than marcos. He is also the go to guy for Gottlieb parts. Anything from one decal to springs, a great source for advice and questions can be answered. If you order a ring kit from steve it will be much more accurate than if you order one from marcos. Alot of machines the book is wrong for rubber ring sizes. Freddy is one of them.

Quoted from jnoelo1225:Hello All!! My husband and I just bought the Freddy pinball machine and LOVE IT!!!! But it just so happens that right when we figured out the rules the left upkick decided to stop working... A few days ago we noticed the boiler room door wasn't opening all the way and the ball is getting stuck which causes the machine to malfunction. Is there a direction you can point me and my husband in to fix the upkick part? Or how to fix this problem with the boiler room door? Thank you so much and we're so exciyed to be apart of this forum...
On your vertical upkicker problem. I would first check the the wires that are soldered on the coil. Maybe one wire just fell off/ came loose. Then check test the fuses. In your Manuel it will have a a list of what each fuse is for.
