Just picked up a Robocop that has been in storage for,looks like forever. couple of things that jump out right out of the gun are, there is only only one tip36 on the ppb board. Of course the IPDB data base manual does not cover the schematics for this board, the manual states pages 35 36 37 for board schematics but the manual actually only has 33 pages. So any help here would be great. Also the top 16 digit display on game turn on has one bright segment at the end light up then nothing,, the game goes into game attract mode and the lower display scrolls high scores and such. Game does go into game mode and fundamentally works. There seems to be no sign of battery damage but has had some board work done on power supply and lamp driver board.

thx a bunch

Alright, display gassed out, replaced with NOS and working well. Had some issues with flash lamps under the playfield stuck on, the three inserts two black and white and the red one are cooked not sure how I am going to repair those yet, found bad 7408 and replaced. sound alittle tinny, found the cabinet speaker ripped, so looking for replacement. Center plastic over yellow drop targets been fabbed out of blue plastic, so on the hunt for another. Oh ya the plug for the g.i. the four yellow wire one just off the power supply board gets hotter than hell.

Data east service bulletin No. 23 maybe holds the key you need for the weak flippers. It is four pages long and goes into detail on upgrades to the flipper board.

Well playing around with some chrome molding and pinstripe tape on the Robocop. Here is the before and after pics.
