ok expert pinsiders.. just picked up a reimported gilligans island and the driver board has a lot of hacks on it and I don’t know where to begin.. I’ve taken lots of pics
Was wondering a few things:
-What am I looking at?
-Is the driver board worth having repaired or should I just punt and replace it.
-other than the connector hack done by the burnt connectors, what are the other wires and jumpers soldered onto the board?
History:
This game was off eBay 20 years ago or more and has been is storage for over 10.
It’s in decent shape other than being very dirty and needs a good shop job.
Seems to play decent except the ball trough kicker doesn’t engage is play or test mode( I’m sure it’s a driver board issue)
I see that the wires were soldered directly to the pins and another connecter is burned so those are obvious issues.
But other than that I’m overwhelmed at what I see.. including the gold capacitor? in the wiring harness.
Q84 transitor looks burned but has a weird wire hack coming from it
Any help to get me started or if I need to just replace would be appreciated..
Since this is a hack job that’s been done not sure and need expert opinions.
If need more pics to help diagnose please lmk
Thanks in advance
