Quoted from BlitzM4:

Trying to find the part number for this plastic piece or a source for one. Goes on the jet bumper, mine is missing.
Thanks!
[quoted image]

I just bought a set of new plastics and wouldn’t you know it, this one is missing from that too! I’ll try to use the current one or make one myself.

Nice guide! I knew mine had the wrong rubbers in a few locations from the previous owner(s). I might have to go and correct these now!

I have been having an oddball problem with my game. Sometimes it happens at the beginning of the first game after it has been powered off for a while, but it can happen at any time. Both the pops and slings, along with their switches will stop working and then suddenly come alive and work. I have looked everywhere for anything resembling a short or something out of the ordinary but can’t find anything. I have also tried seeing if moving around any plugs made a difference but that didn’t. To me, it sounds like a cold solder joint somewhere or a loose wire, but i haven’t been able to find anything. Any ideas what I should check?

Quoted from GRUMPY:

Does the right dock kickback stop working at the same time the pops and kicker stop?

I got it figured out. Corroded plug for the switches.

I have the PBL one. They make them in house on their 3D printers. Very nice! Way better than the junky original.

I got my new plastic and decal installed, looks great! There is one thing I didn’t expect though. The decals are printed on a thick material similar to the pinblades I have bought for other games. The material is so thick that my lights behind the 1,2, and 3 are barely visible. I am seeing them more from a reflection off the black board behind it. I did have pretty dim lights in there to begin with but they were fine with the original decal. I’ll try brighter lights in there later tonight otherwise maybe some of the “bendies” will work.

Quoted from pin-pimp:

we went off of what my original decals looked like. the first sample decals that are on my test PF were glossy. the decals on my factory PF
were matt finish. they went with the matt finish for the production run. I have not got a sample of the matt so I cant say. In the game all
lit up I would think makes no difference. the 1-2-3 lights up good with the glossy with LED behind them. someone needs to post what the matt looks like or i can try and get a sample

Sorry this looks so washed out from the blue. You can see that #2 is lit more from the reflection than the bulb.

Quoted from pin-pimp:

Rick says he has held both styles of decal up to the light and they are both fairly transparent in the 1-2-3 area. I would suggest using a led bulb behind those areas.

I am going to order bendable yellow and cool white LEDs from PBL to try in there. I already had LEDs in there and it is 75% dimmer than the original decal was.

Quoted from radium:

If you want a really nice one, track down xianek

I second this. I also bought the one on eBay from Classic Arcades and it’s 100x better than what I have but if I were to do this all over again I would have bought a Premium translite or backglass from xiantek. I have his CFTBL glass and have seen his BoP one and they are wonderful! If you order the glass it will take months to get here from overseas though.
