So yesterday I picked up a High Speed II The Getaway, yesterday and I don’t know where to start.
This is my second pin and a bit more advanced than my Cyclone. I suppose it’s official, I’ve been bit..
This is my first 90’s game with a DMD.

I think survey is certainly in order to see where I’m at and where I should start.
I have an idea but...
In any case, I’m in search of a mentor (s) to mentor me through my repair/ restore journey on this pin.
The more the merrier.

Thank you in advance!

Any one in?

Some better pics to follow with what I found...

Thank you!

I will defiantly start reading. Thank you for the links!
I’m always pleasantly amazed with the vast number of knowledgeable people willing to point you in the right direction!

I’ll definitely check him out.
First thing is to get the machine to play. Then I’m taking apart the playfield to clean, polish anything metal then order and install some extras.

Thanks for the tip!

I’m starting to read the club thread.

Not sure the best place to look or ask.
I don’t seem to be Abel to find the on and off switch.
There’s a spot for it but I don’t see it.
Apparently the “on switch” was plugging it in”
I’m guessing the on off switch was part of the line filter assembly?
#6 from the manual on the attached.
I guess I should probably open it up and see what’s going on in there.
I’m trying to find a schematic for it.
I also saw some electrical tape on the main power cord.
I havE a strong feeling a new cord is also going on the list.

Thanks again for the links!
I still fumble through Pinside a bit.
Theres So much information...
Someone posted some information and things to test regarding the error code check fuse f114/f115.
I’s some of the best specific information I’ve received so far on what to check regarding that error.. I still want to read through the club posts just to see what I might run into..
First things first. I found the on. Off switch.
I thought it was missing. I got lucky, it was just pushed back into the assembly. All I need I a nut and washer reinstall and I’m good. (Hopefully)
I also pulled the door.
It needs work.
Seeing as how I just finished the door on my Cyclone (which now looks awesome) so it looks very familiar.
It’s missing parts. It’s dirty, need to solder some wires back onto the coin switch.
Need to figure out which ones go where....I think I can figure it out from the coin interface board.
I’m not sure if the test switch is working.
Currently all I get is the error message and the test switch does nothing.
I’m guessing it’s because of the error.

Sadly, No coin box & no coins.
I did get a few wrenches and burnt out incandescent bulbs along with
A fair amount of dirt.

This the current shape of the door.
Not too exiting stuff.

I’m a little disappointed the front button housing doesn't have the “W” on it.
Perhaps it originally didn’t or it’s a replacement. Looks original though.
I’m thinking I might be able to gently bend back that part of the hinge and open up the hole with something so that the hinge rod can pass through it.

The saga continues ...
The CPU and MPU we’re sent out to Clive,
They came back in perfect working order.
Thank you Clive!
I reinstalled all the boards, powered up the pin and I received a few error messages.
Check switch 81 opto 1 through switch 85 opto 5. Also, none of the lamps light up.

For starters, I suppose I should. Heck ALL
My connections to the boards. I may have missed one or plugged it in the wrong place and check the ribbon cables.

Im hoping it’s as simple as that.

Small problem... The pictures I took before removing all the boards are kind of crappy.
I was able to find some back box pictures I can use as well as the schematics to check the plugs.

When I push the start button, a game won’t start. Is that normal if it’s displaying the opto errors?

Anyone have any other idea why I would have all the errors and no lites other than for me to check all the connections?
