Hello Skateball owners.
Im talking to someone about buying their game long distance. The game plays as it should apparently but the g.i.and backglass lighting are working (inserts, bumbers and scores all good)
Any idea what the cause could be? Dont want to commit to another money pit
Quoted from FatPanda:Possibly a burnt/bad connector or a break in the 5V somewhere? Could be a bad bridge rectifier too. I wouldnt think it would be too difficult to diagnose.
Owner is not a pinball guy. I wont know what the problem is until it becomes my problem lol
Could a kind Skateball owner take a measurement of the game with its head folded down? I can barely squeeze a system 11 in my car. I dont want to show up to picknup my Skateball and it doesnt fit. I cant find a clear answer on the internet.
My Skateball coils just stopped working today. Only did a cursory look at things. Fuses seemed fine. Any thoughts? No trough eject, slings or pops right now
Quoted from Quench:Check the under playfield fuse next to the flipper mechs - it's a 1 amp slow blow and fuses all playfield coils *after* the flippers.
That was it. Thanks.
Quoted from out_of_order:I don't know if this has ever been mentioned here before, but originally Skateball had a very different playfield. A friend of mine had told me that many years ago and I had never seen anything about that. Thanks to the IPDB, we now have a pic of it. I love how the game turned out , but would have loved to play the other playfield layout and ruleset. I am curious to hear some of your opinions of this other playfield.

Looks like a boring 2 flipper with a nudging though pops upper playfield that is just wasted space imo. Glad this isnt what we got. (Though i dont own any games yet with the big center drain pop up....)
Quoted from PinballOrphanage:Is this one nice enough for you???[quoted image][quoted image]
Its nice but i prefer that minty HUO look
