Quoted from RonSS:

Here I am, the new guy that just picked up a Space Station. I've got some missing GI which I'm told is going to be a J16 connector or something.
I just removed the 2006 batteries...
I think I got lucky.
Also, take a look at this toastyness![quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Hard lesson...
Note: best practice, on this game, is to fuse each pop bumper separately.
------ replace each of the pop bumpers with a 2amp slow blow fuses.

Quoted from ThatOneDude:

Picked up a project Space Station last week.
It looks bad, but fired right up. Should be fun to repair.

Aah! you have an Eros One. Fun game.

Quoted from Sciddleybop1980:

Would you be so kind as to post a pic where you mounted the fuse holder and which wire you cut to insert it? Thanks mate

I mounted the fuses under the playfield by the pop bumpers.
Like the magnet fuses on a Data East game....
I attached the main red/white wire to one side of the fuses [ like a Gottlieb Game ]
Then attached the lose red/white wires from each pop bumper on the other side
of each fuse.
Finally, I put in three 2Amp slow-blow fuses to each fuse holder.
Note: I do not have the game... if it is still out there, or scrapped...
------ The mode was done to keep the game from blowing the 2½ Amp slow-blow fuse.
------ The game has a flaw of having the right kickout attached to the red/white voltage wire.
------ Which is attached to the three pop bumpers... bad design....
------ The mod worked... the game was on location etc.. One day at collection, one of
------ the fuses popped. The game still worked, a ball was not stuck in the right kickout.
------ I considered the mod a success.

Quoted from AlexRogan84:

I just noticed this on the playfield... a monolith. Is this like a little Easter Egg shout-out to the movie 2001 A Space Odyssey?
[quoted image]

Way back when,
I tried to explain that little Easter Egg to the home owners of the game.
They just did not get it... looked at me with blank stares.

Start with the basics:
Power supply:
Have you changed the capacitors associated with the +5volt regulator?
