Hi,

The lower bumper seems to work fine when I first turn the machine on and play a game. Then after a game or 2 it will just not respond and when hit it will set off the upper bumper and do nothing itself but seems like it wants to.

On both I have changed the sleeve in the coil, skirt, new spoon, cleaned the contacts on the switch and just cause I had them next to me when I was doing this I also replaced the resister in the proper direction.

Everything ive read says the coils just would not work and time would not degrade them. They look in good shape. But I am sure they are the originals. Some 30 plus years old?

What do I need to look for here?

Thanks in advance

This picture is before I cleaned them up and replaced these things.

The one on the coil. Correct?

Duh, terminology is everything here. That is what I ment to say when I was doing the small rebuild part. I changed out the 1n4004 on the switch. So thats new. I'l change it out just in case. But it was doing this same thing before I changed out the diode.
