I'll take one of the spots for a fighterplane to fill up yor order
Just need some opinions regarding using the lightboard or the LED harness.
What will look best ?

#3464 5 years ago
Quoted from KornFreak28:

Ricochet’s LED’s look 100% better than the original LED’s

Ok.Set me up for Ricochet’s LED’s

#3467 5 years ago
Quoted from KornFreak28:

Before you do anything we need to find out how much shipping costs to your country. Sometimes the shipping costs more than the item itself. Where are is Oslo located?

I'll pm you my address to so you can find out the shipping costs.

Quoted from Medisinyl:

Trying to keep some of the information in the dedicated thread, but I'll be busy with other work until Sunday, so this is on hold for a moment. I'll be aiming to open up orders sometime next week (plan is to ship a first run of at least 5 sets within two weeks of opening orders[gives me time to order additional materials based on demand and make the parts], then runs every week after that), and I'm hoping to have a non-LED version finished with a different color option to show before quoting any final pricing information.
If it's feasible to do more than 5 sets in a week, I would attempt to do so.
I have several people on a list currently and will first offer the mod to those people in the order I received interest. Again, hoping to get another color option shown before anyone makes any decisions.
As always, I appreciate the interest

Interested.Please put me on the list

Just installed the soundsystem from Pinwoofer in my Indiana Jones and it's absolutley awesome. This combined with Pinsound+ and the Endprodukt score,you can't go wrong.
Great system and fantastic customer service from Dan at Pinwoofer

Recieved my new improved deflector today.Works perfect.Locks the ball in every time and no more SDTM.Best mod ever
Thanks Jim for bringing an IJ owner some peace

#8480 2 years ago
Quoted from thechakapakuni:

What changed from the original?

I was experiencing a lot of SDTM with the old one and that's gone now with the new deflector.

My machine keeps factory resetting every time i turn it on
I took out the battery and checked it with a multimeter and it measures just over 3v.
Anything else i need to look at ?

Quoted from Manny65:

The battery is only used to hold the settings and high score information in RAM while the game is power off, and is not related to game resets.
WPC resets are covered in detail at https://www.pinwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Williams_WPC#Game_resets
However as a starting point if you have a DMM check the voltages at TP1, 2 & 3 on your Power Driver board (as per below)[quoted image]

TP1,2 and 3 checks out just around the values (+11.9 v and + 4.9 v) however on TP6 i got + 71.5 v (should be +50) and TP8 i got something between +15-16 v

#9470 2 years ago
Quoted from Manny65:

All looks good (only TP2 & TP3 are regulated so the others will be higher as you have found), except the TP2 5v reg is low at 4.9v (a WPC machine will reset if it drops below 4.85v).
Reseat J101 to see if this increases the TP2 voltage, if no change I'd start to suspect BR2 and C5 - I see you have a TZ and Whitewater, so you could swap your power driver board over and see the problem follows and take readings of TP2 on both.
Worth reading https://www.pinwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Williams_WPC#Game_resets (if you haven't already) as it covers other areas that can cause resets

Thanks Manny.I'll explore your suggestions and report back my findings.

Took the driver board from my TZ and over to IJ but no change.
TP2 on TZ is 4,962 V and IJ is 4,939 V.

#9499 2 years ago
Quoted from Manny65:

Did you try reseating J101 and retesting the TP2 voltage before swapping the boards? What voltage did you see?
TP2 on TZ is 4,962 V - is this with the board that was originally in IJ or this was the reading of the TZ board before you moved it?
TP2 on IJ is 4,939 V - is this for the TZ board that you swapped into IJ?

I reseated j101 before i swapped the boards and the reading in IJ was just the same as when i installed the driver board from TZ in the IJ.
So after swapping the boards the reading for TP2 is 4,962 v for TZ and 4,939 v for IJ.
TZ boots up as it should. IJ factory resets every time.

Quoted from Jedi_Gill:

As the creator of this sound file, Yes this is the one I highly recommend many people use. I tried the Endproduk and while it was pretty darn good it has some major flaws in simply the sound spiking up when it shouldn't and some sounds even going off at the same time. In particular when you would lock a ball, and the machine says great shot for the plane exploding sequence those sounds where overlapping on one another making it impossible to hear what was going on. With the sound package I created I fixed all those glitches so now it will say great shot and then moments later locked ball.
The sound spiking up was super annoying, I was constantly fiddling with the volume knob when it got super loud and then back to regular sounds. I went through every single sound file and raised and lowered the sounds accordingly. If it was a background sound I never let some chords in the sound spike way too loud. If it was a callout, or important event I raised the volume so you would clearly hear it over the background music. Previously before I touched it these sounds where on the same level and it was harder to hear them out.
I did add/remove a few other sound bytes when you complete the characters, previously some sound bytes where just from the movie and it didn't make sense for me since the character you unlocked wasn't from the sound byte you where hearing. Now everytime you unlock that character your guaranteed to hear a sound byte from that person's mouth. It's definitely a few more than the original and I think I pulled some sound bytes from other packages. I didn't go to crazy with this but it's atleast no longer just 1 sound file per character like it was on the original. It will cycle between 3 or 4 for each character.
I really hope the community enjoys the sound package I put together; as mentioned I don't take credit for creating the actual sounds but simply refining what someone else did. This is why I called the. Jedi's re-master of Endproduk's remaster.

I can confirm that the new version sounds way better.
Thanks for upgrade

I'm getting "factory settings restored" every time i power on the machine.
Measuring 2.5 v on pin 28 at U8 when the game is off.
Does that mean that D2 is failing ?

Quoted from Joost996me:

Looks a lot like a error I got after frying on of the boards under the playfield, while changing some LED bulbs. Resolved by replacing LM339 on the A-13901-2 board (under playfield). Does this opto board looks burned?

Thanks. I'll check it out.I hadn't done anything in those ares prior when this happend.
