Hello, my name is Dave. I appreciated reading various posts people helped on someone elses Hokus Pokus and hoped you could help me. Here is my dilema. I have brought 15 pins back to life. I started with an EM then went to SS and DMD. I buy them cheap and restore them and sell them. Not as much for the money but more to keep them alive and people enjoying them. Well I bought a dead Hokus Pokus. A friend of my wife wanted to buy it as a Christmas present for her husband and two daughters. I said I would sell it to her for what I bought it for plus my cost of parts but wouldn't charge her any thing for my time to fix it. The flippers were jacked, I fixed them. The bonus unit count down feature was gummed. I disassembled and cleaned and reassembled. Rebuilt all score wheels, match unit, ball count unit. Pretty much anything that moved was taken apart and cleaned. Finally the game worked 100%. All features worked Praise God! I played 10 games in single and 2-player mode. It was awesome. I clear coated the backglass and it dried perfectly. I then went to the store to buy paint to touch up a few spots on the BG. I was excited when I returned and called my wife out to the garage to show her. I have spent more time on this machine than any others I have done. I turned the game on and score wheels zero'd but it did not kick the ball. When I play a 1-player game (its set for free play) it does everything but it doesn't kick th eball, however when you hit start button again for 2 player it changes to 2 can play and kicks the ball out. That ball scores correctly EXCEPT the ABCD lights that are in a line in the center of PF do not stay on as they used to. They flash on (when they are tripped) and go off. I know this is wrong because getting them once scores a bonus, twice a different bonus. I have the schematic and manual. I posted the manual to IPDB, but it i snot there. I can email it to whoever wants to help me. I need this resolved before Christmas. I can't let her down. I spent over 20 hours since and I am at a total loss. I cleaned and checked every switch making sure it was making correct contacts energized and un energized. Can you help me? I called all pin repair guys and they want to royally screw me and charge $200-250. I sold the game for $390. I replaced all lights, new rubbers, new balls. cleaned and waxed playfield. I am getting stressed and sick of the time I am spending. My personal email is [email protected] phone 602.524.6081 I live in Arizona
