Anyone in this group know where I can can get a schematic for an ABC Deluxe shuffle bowler? I'm guessing it's 60's vintage based on the stories the owner told me.

Thanks

Ramegoom and Mopar - Thanks. The owners will be thrilled.

I was contacted by someone who wants to get his grandfather's United 4-Way puck bowler working. It has not worked for quite awhile. I looked at it via Facetime, and it is missing the reset bank coil. He said he had it, but it was burned up. He did not have a schematic, so I am at a loss of what the coil number would be. I have a bunch of coils, so I am hoping I would have one that would work, or at least a part number to start searching.

The machine was given to Grandpa by a "friend of the family" in the business. Interestingly, it has less than 1000 plays, and to start a game, you pulled on a cord attached to a relay. The coin box assembly is missing - probably to keep the machine from being out in the public.

I don't want to work on it, so if you're near Chatham, Illinois and are interested, PM me and I'll put you in contact with the owner. It will also need a power cord and will need to figure out why the reset coil burned up. If you have a schematic or a link, please let me know, too. Thanks

Mopar -Thanks. Any idea on resistance of the coil after being wound?

The local motor shop tends to “lose” things, and after them losing the second special design motor, I’ve decided I’m done with them.

He still has the old coil so if the bobbin is still good, that sounds like the way to go.

Anybody out there know how to get hold of Bob Coker or is anyone out there who is willing to work on this machine?

Pochuck Valley - your batteries are missing because the board already has NVRAM installed. U25

You don't need to do anything.

Look at your posted pic. The NVRAM is U25. It is the chip that looks different from the rest. It has a little circuit board that plugs into the chip socket.

It’s to the left of the Shuffle Inn U27 rom. It has the brand name of the NVRAM maker stamped on the bottom of the circuit board.

Without seeing a pic of the switch, if it’s a leaf type, he could get a replacement leaf, or just get a new switch. PBR, Marco, etc.

You will need to replace the whole switch. Once the land (where the wire is soldered/connected) is broken off, there’s no repair.

You should be able to find a part # on the switch. Look it up on Mouser, Newark, etc. There’s so many variations that I doubt PBR or Marco would carry it, unless it’s widely used in pinball machines.
