    Hey all!

    My Gottlieb 1959 Queen of Diamonds has one bell that sounds very muted and I think it might be missing a spring. Right now, the lever that strikes the bell is just leaning on the bell. Do I need a spring to attach to the lever that strikes the bell? If so, where can I find a spring to install? I believe the old spring popped so I’ll need a new one. Thanks!

    Yes, spring needed. Email Jimmy at PBR and ask him about it: [email protected]

    Actually, the spring likely matches the other one, so if you can find one in a hardware store it will save shipping cost.

    Tried installing the spring but I’m confused about how it is installed I see the hole where one half of the spring goes but does the other half go around that bell lever? I tried doing that and now the score motor is endlessly running

    Had to take the stepper out and on the other side there was a hole for the other half of the spring
