I joined the club today. Got a machine that has sat in a basement for the past 10 yrs. GI comes on but that is it. Gotta drill the lock to get into the backbox, but I suspect battery damage since they were never changed. I think I am gonna have to do a full restore And looking forward to trying it for my first time.

I’m going to drill the lock tonight, so we will see. I’ll post here.

Both locks drilled. Man those barrel locks are a booger. GI on and the board Led came on for a second and then went out. Reseated the connectors and it stays on. Took some pics of the board. Luckily, in my quick overview I didn’t see any batteries anywhere. So who knows.

Lol yeah I completely missed the single battery. Displays don’t come on, just a couple orange dots. And no solenoids fire nor will a game start. There’s issues somewhere, just gotta find them. Might be easier once I get it unloaded and can check fuses, etc

Pinballlife has a new board with connectors, etc in a kit for $64. Good to get here or get the one from Marco for $84 with no connectors?

I want it built and ready. I like quick and efficient. Hahahaha

Yeah yeah...some is ok

No issues so far. The wire guides were easy out and easy in. Working on the star rollovers next so I’ll let you know.

My star rollovers a tually went in loose with no clearcoat trimming needed. Got all the drops cleaned and rebuilt. Slowly coming together. This is my first attempt at a “restore” and I am learning constantly. Being an impatient person works against me as I have to remind myself to go slow and not screw stuff up.FA7793E4-48B9-44BC-BEBB-1727A1DD1B3E (resized).jpegF1715E87-94EE-4C68-AAC6-23B303BEC772 (resized).jpegF2650572-1C15-4D45-84C5-F1457261BDBF (resized).jpegEF7B5200-D0B6-4287-A6C1-8D9562F486DB (resized).jpegEA43B38B-7D25-4BD3-9AA7-803399394A4C (resized).jpegCA01D79F-2B22-4B98-80BA-2ED79B71C9DC (resized).jpegA1978E10-0AC6-496A-9A55-B6E269D6986D (resized).jpeg9E163A61-EB4C-416E-9DA2-EBD101FBE2F9 (resized).jpeg8DC3A2F2-4AAE-4568-BA63-68BA2E4B9BB6 (resized).jpeg86C25985-29BE-4D45-B10A-19AA39711223 (resized).jpeg7D721C79-4497-4C11-BAD9-3A9066E63788 (resized).jpeg75B0A753-3D68-4DB4-B83B-419C4E96D969 (resized).jpeg5F39B279-889D-4EE3-8AF4-C2BBA67F0698 (resized).jpeg5C7267FF-CF1F-449B-BBE2-3020DB06C4C9 (resized).jpeg495DB304-9EDF-4A8E-B7C2-306693B65B8B (resized).jpeg478EF4E3-1D9C-46DB-B454-CAE48A5EEE09 (resized).jpeg459FB2B3-3AA8-420C-9086-3A76BC4CD086 (resized).jpeg4160E025-D6EB-4DC1-9DBB-21D0AB5D4214 (resized).jpeg1DDCD0C2-5E30-4C51-B39B-53FAF641863D (resized).jpeg0E60F9A0-6459-4BF3-819E-8E353A83D659 (resized).jpeg

It’s because the coils arent in, so the drops are not up as far as they would be. Good catch

I think I tossed them, but if not they are yours.
