I recently bought my dream pinball machine, a Star Trek Next Generation. So I have immediately started to repair and mod it. I am the in the process of replacing the Romulan Warbird and Klingon Bird of Prey with the Hallmark Ornaments. I followed JarbyJibbo's instructions at: http://rgparchive-removed.com/rgpforum/showthread.php?t=390910 . So I first installed my modded Bird of Prey. It looks great. I even shrink wrapped the the wires to the post mount. However after playing it for a while the flashing front yellow LED on the front tip of the ship stopped working. The thread talks about it overheating, and why it needs a resistor. Mine has a 1/4watt 6.8ohm like the one described in the post. I turned of the machine for 30 seconds and back on. Still the led did not light up. I went to bed worried I had burned out the LED. Started the machine in the morning and the flashing led was working again! In the pictures it looks like JarbyJibbo used 68ohm and not a 6.8ohm. So I tested the voltages before and after my resistor. I got 3.2v before and 2.5v after. From my understanding neither voltage with or without should overheat the LEDs on the Bird of Prey. What am I Missing? Here is a pic of my version of the mod. DSC02065.JPG
