Bally had "credit" decals on their backglasses.
Newer glass the "credit" word is silkscreen on.

In 1995 at that time the market was flooded with games.
It was completely saturated. I got my Judge Dead for $400.00 dollars.
Capcom just came on the scene with Pinball Magic.
In a few months, everything in the pinball market would collapse.

Quoted from PinballNZ:

Question - does the plexi that covers the display in the playfield have a gasket or ring to keep it level with the playfield?

Yes!, it is a gray "Williams display frame shape" item.
If lost, use Fishpaper or gasket seal from the hardware store
and sand it down in order to make the top plastic fit flush with the playfield when completely assembled.

Use a light grease only on the sliding parts.
Use a grease that does not get hard.
A little goes a long way.

@pinplayer01. You can use #555 or #259 lamps
----- for that particular assembly. The black sockets are twist
----- and pull. Yes, you are missing four of the twist
----- sockets for this/that assembly.

Has anybody sanded the back side of the playfield in order to then it out?

#463 6 years ago

The metal backing plate was part of the original design. Wico, supplied
the target and target switch. Wico's transparent targets were brittle and
would break. Thus, allowing the hack repairs to the top three targets.
If the operator of the game at the time would have given the serial
number etc. to the game distributor, the operator would have been supplied
with a free update kit from Bally.

Program code on level 3?

Quoted from Quench:

Has anyone experienced this level of wear on the Zipper Flipper cranks?

I have on the regular EM pinballs, but not to that extreme.
You have to remember Zipper Flippers were designed for AC current
not DC current.

Quoted from PavBall:

Quoted from meSz:

Turn game on today and left flippers are down. Have continuity back to the Alltek Solenoid Board and to PS board. All wires intact. Looking for next thing(s) to look for.
By know means am I proficient in electronics so if you can dummy it down for me I cam go from there. Thnx

Check EOS switch on bottom flippers.

#608 2 years ago
Quoted from meSz:

I did visually check them and they appear to be good. Gapped properly, wires intact.

Test:
1) in game play mode if you press left flipper button.
aq) does left flipper activate?
a1) yes.
a2) no.
if No, then
b) manually raise bottom flipper in up position.
bq) does flipper stay activate in up position?
b1) yes.
b2) no.
if yes, then EOS is possible problem or associated coil windings.
if no, then coil has continuity problems, check pcb relay circuit...etc.

Quoted from Liakos:

I was wondering if someone can kindly help...?
When in switch mode the ball ejects from trough into shooter lane...
However in gameplay the kickout is very weak and only kicks the ball maybe 1 inch?...
And not into shooter lane...
Is that a short?... board?...
Technician tried swapping out 1 board but nothing... technician cant figure out the problem?....

Did you check the solenoid expander? cold solder joints...
Did you check the lamp bridge rectifier? any A.C. ripple?
