Gday Guys,
Maybe a bit late joining the magic show here.

Pick up PM a few mouths ago in bad shape in Bisbane.
Had been sitting a shed for 3 years, was a non worker.
Had the CPU board fix by Jomac in Perth.

Had a few opto problems, non working display, no sound.
Just replace the opto and fix that problem!
Still no sound or display.
Had a few games as is,
Missing a few parts, Trunk cover, right lower ball guide the one that covers opto board at the ball though, and the stage doors.Back glass. Also needs a new hat.
But still a very good pickup an a very cool game.
Would very much like to get hold of the right lower ball guide if you guys seen one any where?

In the Diagmostics the switch is not showing up as working.
The switch works testing with the meter. Wire trace to board is ok. Think I got it theres a lose ground wire bit more down on the board.
Ok fix! Ground wire from lane swich go's to presto change-o swich had come off.

Quoted from CraZyMuffin:
Hey guys, I am looking to create a 12v/5v power tap with standard 3-pin mod plugs for Pinball Magic and other similar Capcom machines, however I don't have one myself I can test with.
After looking through the schematics, it looks like the only easy place to pull both 5v and 12v from a board connector is the "Display Power Supply Board" A0015502 (possibly B001552 or A001553 or maybe others).
The downside is this connector also shows some of the pins are high voltage, so care needs to be taken that the power is off when installing the mod or messing with this connector.
Before I make up a power tap for this, I would like to confirm that I am reading the schematics right and there will be 5v and 12v in the pins I expect.
Is there anyone here comfortable testing some pin voltages with a multimeter? After the board is made, I will send you one for free so you can test again to make sure my power tap provides the correct voltages to the mod plug. Ideally I am looking for someone with multiple Capcom machines they can test my power tap in, I will provide a free power tap for each! (but not necessary)
PM me for more details. Thanks!

On the pinball Magic power board I believe not all the 12v/5v pin are used up. So may a good place for create a 12v/5v power tap

Todd from TNT Amusements always says to put a big old cable tie around them to hold them firmly in place. I think they even pack something between them.

You can use Williams opto boards i believe. That wire doesn;t even look attached to the lead....did you try resoldering them?
"Replacement Capcom Optos.
Williams optos (receiver and transmitter) work well in Capcom games. It may be necessary to replace both the receiver and transmitter, but I am not sure about that. See the WPC repair guide for more information on Williams optos. Capcom used the T1 3/4 type LED style optos, as Williams used in their ball troughs. "

Quoted from PinballManiac40:
You would have to test voltage at the DMD or the output connector of the power board to know. That is the first possibility. You need the 62v also, not just the -112v and -100v.

DMD Power boards is good, even tested with a spare backup DMD power board.
That leaves the ribbon, DMD or CPU.

Just as I was about to post this, I look up and it was working!
Happy it,s working just dont like not knowing why.

It played up later and press on the ribbon cable and felt a clip and all was good again.

Quoted from DMC:
Hey guys my red flasher at the back isn’t working. I’ve changed the bulb and socket with no luck. I unplugged connector from below the bulb and even stuck bulb wires in there to see if it would flash. No luck. There’s a second bulb on the backbox that flashes with the test (Solenoid 24/J21 on the driver board) so I’m wondering does that mean the power flow is good from the board? My j20 and j21 connectors are swapped compared with the manual but I’m guessing they’re both the same and it doesn’t matter? Any help would be great.

There both the same.
1, is for the back box flashers and the second for the playfeld flasher

Without them, it would have looked good.

To what I had it's 100% improvement to not having a trunk at all.
It looks and seems stong.
If thay gave a little more sanding those line may not be there and with the more work there be more cost.

Removed from the playfeld and it would work without missing a beat in test. Reinstalled and jams!
