Hi everyone,

I was wondering what the best order is for a playfield swap. I've got a brand new TAF playfield and most of the stuff is in a pretty bad shape so I'm going to order a hefty amount of replacement parts. Due to this, I'm planning on unsoldering all the connections from the underside, labelling them, and just taking the harness off and moving every assembly one by one. Should I do the T-nuts first, then all the posts, then the underside assemblies, then the rest of the stuff on top? I went through a couple of rebuild threads on PinSide, but there didn't seem to be an agreed consensus and methods differ from one user to another.

Best regards,
snowvictim

Thanks for the input, I'll definitely follow your advice. Everything seems easier to do once the harness is removed, to be honest, that's why my starting point will be removing all the wires and labelling them. Worst case scenario I'll just have to recheck everything with the matrix charts... So generally overall, disassembly starting with the top finishing at the underside, reassembly the inverse?
