Hi guys, long time studier of the word out here on pinside,

Has anyone tried removing the glass display from a high speed individual score display and soldering up the pins to a display used on later 11b models with the 4 displays on 1 pcb?
I have player 4 thats out on my Big Guns and would like to know if anyone has tried this before..

my +/- 90v are looking good at the glass pinouts off the display pcb, so im trying to isolate the issue.

will report back with my success!!!

The back side of the 4-LCD pcb, in the 11b has nipple holes!! Hah!

Nipple provision!

I'm down with that, sounds like it would be easier joining the legs from the pcb to the legs off the glass rather than wicking each pcb solder point.

Thanks for the tip.

Btw, are there any other more attainable and cheaper displays that are compatible?

Current pricing makes that Rottendog dis200 seem pretty tempting

Anyone ever try a system 9 7-digit display?

I'm just noticing some numeric boards seem to have less pins that connct to the pcb.. Wondering if that's going to be an issue.. with hope the digits are drawn

Wow, ok how about those 7 digit displays with fewer legs? I see some that look like the attachment, but I see the driver boards look so different.

What I have is the checkmarked version. Are they cross compatible? (although I doubt it)

ZOMG!!!!!!

WILL REPORT BACK FOR SURE!!

I guess the other legs are to control the displays for animations? Or those other things the newer games do?

Grumpy, did you notice?

guys, this is really breakthrough news for those of us with display issues. I am new to the pin-world and the madness it brings, is this just old news?

I am curious if they would spend the time to solder each lead as a support and just not make a better plastic holder or something like that, but if it works the way it should I would be very grateful.

still really close to pulling the trigger on a Rottendog display, but so far if i can save some coin with just an individual display - id rather go that route in the short term.

Also made some other progress on my big guns! resoldered the drop target insert boards!

That's kinda what I'm talking about. Big guns does a bit with what they had using numerics for the lower displays, but I'm just hoping it can at least display
Ball 1, never mind the targets and score scrolling - but that would be good too.

Ok, sounds good. Now to secure a display! Thanks for the pintech assistance!! Any other oddities to worry about?

4 numeric? i find alphanumeric animations pretty swanky.

Guys, thanks for all your encouragement, the lesser pin displays work perfectly. My display board has NO original lcd boards, all of them have been replaced at some point.

BUT THEY ALL Work!!

Thanks again for all the encourement and knowledge!!
