I'm new to the pinball community, and have never owned a pin before. I've just bought my first "fixer upper" pin, and was wondering if there are any books, manuals, or videos that are a good starting point to learn how to repair/restore one's own machine. Thanks for any advice.

The title is Cybernaut. It's a solid state, digital display Bally machine from 1985. The cabinet is a little beat up with minor flaws. Mainly, some peeling of decal on back of display cabinet, and some chipping on the top of display cabinet. Back glass is intact with some bubbling in the artwork. There appears to be very little rust on the machine. Mainly, on the legs and coin area. It is missing the lock to the coin area. Playfield is in excellent condition. Very little wear on it. It is dull and dusty. Some of the plastics have a small amount of mildew on them. Electrical components look to be in good shape. Boards are intact with no corrosion on them. I bought it "as is" and haven't had time to check out how it operates yet. I do know that it powers on, and that's about it. The manual was included and is still intact. That's all that I know at this point. Thanks for the help...
