Quoted from Inferno:Some day I'll share in "my story" about a Gilligan's Island Pin that literally saved my life.
Do tell!
I just got mine running again. Took weeks to work out. The island wasnt turning and it appeared that the mchine knew that so wouldnt drop the ramp. Tests showed everthing working. My techy mate resoldered boards, replaced bits etc. I finally noticed the little tab on the island lock mech had broken off and wasnt hitting the switch. Sheeesh. Couldnt find the part to buy so made a little plate with a tab and wallah the castaways are happy again. I'm more of a Gilligan than a professor.
