In the club with my first Stern pinball pro model.
Routed game with some marks on the cabinet.
Plastics and playfield are good. No damage on the playfield but I see that the insert are showing small marks of wear.
This game is 10 years old and clearcoat is not top on this playfield when I compare it with older Williams or Bally playfields.

What advice can you give me?
Clean the playfield and clearcoat it with several coats of 2k clear?
Place a playfield protector?

Also have a question about the led flipper buttons the seller has installed.
I want to get rid of it. See the pictures of the wires. Can I just cut the wires to the led holder?

What is the purpose of the small metal piece on the inside of the cabinet?
Can I get rid of it to install Mirrorblades?

Thanks for the info.

Hello guys,

Is there a way to connect the back panel light to GI? I'm not a fan of pulsing lights in the back?

Can I add an extra 12v ledstrip in the back and where can I connect it to. Is there a spare 12V connector in the backbox?

Easy and cheap mod but happy with the result.

Could somebody post me his shop out pictures of his pro model please?
Thanks.
Needs also some pictures under the playfield at the megatron Canon assembly because I miss the last 2 screws.

Some modifications done to my Pro model.
Extra double spotlight, added Starscream toy and tapped those flasher lights to a GI bulb so they are always and brighten the playfield.

Hello guys,

I have some issues with my Pro model.

Restored it and put it back together but I have 2 wires with connector that are hanging around. See pictures.
Do I need those or are they for LE version?

I'm having problem with my F8 fuses which keep blowing.

In test mode my right EOS switch does not trigger but in game mode it blows Fuse F8.

None of my slingshots work neither the Megatron Jam.

When I test my left slingshot in test mode it also triggers the Megatron Jam.

Thanks.

Does anybody has the reference of that ball trough assembly under megatron?

Thanks.

Quoted from DaveH:

I don’t have either of those connectors on my Pro. The wire colors seem to be the same as GI on their respective side. But not really sure seeing I don’t have them.
You seem to be having a wiring problem. The way I’d go about it is to trace exactly where and how that right EOS is wired, because you already know it’s wrong. During the restore, when it was going back together, a Z connector got put back 1 pin off. Or it’s one pin off on a non keyed connector. But you have an exact symptom, being that if you trigger the EOS, the fuse blows. What I’m hoping is that as you trace that back, you will run into what is causing all the other problems. So look for wire colors that “change” through connectors. Once you have an exact and reproducible symptom, finding the cause is pretty quick.

The problem with right EOS switch and fuse has been sold.

I have now 2 problems with ghosting switches in the matrix.
Left slingshot triggers also Megatron Jam. Left return lane triggers Megatron lock 1.

Also have a now working Tilt pendulum switch.

Ready to play.
Need to paint the custom rod. Happy with the result so far.
