Hi all, just re-joined the club with my second Genesis. Thought I was buying a fully functional machine however, I got duped by a shady Pinsider. Shame on me for trusting someone I’ve never bought from before. Nevertheless, The motor for the reveal isn’t activating and I can’t turn it by hand. Looking for some guidance on where to start with this. Any help is appreciated!

Thanks for the help. When I engage the relay, I hear a hum on the motor and voltage is present at the terminals. I’ve also tried lubricating the gears to no avail. Looks like I’m headed for a new motor/gearbox.

Another question... the robot is tie wrapped to the table on my machine. What is the correct way for it to be attached?

I’ve tried to free the gears, no luck.

Giving up on the motor for now. Found lots of issues with this machine. Fixed all but rollover lane change. The right flipper doesn’t change the lit rollover lane. I don’t see it as an option in the manual. Any ideas where to start with this one? Thanks

Thanks for the info. The wires aren’t there at all. Could the machine have been built without as everything looks original?

Duh! I’ll re-check tonight. Thanks!

Thanks guys. Man, this machine was butchered... Cut wires and missing extra switch. If someone can confirm that the correct switch is 22398, I’ll get it ordered today. Thanks!

Just finished a ton of repairs on my newly acquired Genesis. While installing LED’s it occurred to me that I hadn’t considered the reveal bulbs. Has anyone replaced them with LED flashers? Thoughts? Photos?

Looking for a NOS original or perfect original translite. PM if you have one available. Thx

Having some issues with Genesis reveal. Noticed that the 67 bulbs stay lit during reveal and Don’t chase/flash like they’re supposed to. Also noticed that the 4 ohm wirewound resistor gets so hot, it melts the solder and disconnects itself from the resistor board. I’ve only had this machine a short time and when I got it, it was riddled with issues. Based upon observation, the lead on the resistor has disconnected before as I can see it’s been resoldered... on the resistor itself. I don’t get the reveal that often so I’m sure this was an issue when I got the machine. Stumped on this one and it sure where to start... resistor tests ok @ 4ohms. Any help appreciated.
