One of the few times Marco has a Gottlieb part that Steve doesn't:

I take it back - it's on his Stargate page and he lists it for cheaper than Marco:

Is it the one viperrwk is referencing or another one? If you have a pic, I am sure I have one. I think I have had almost every system 3 out there at one time or another (I think I am the only System 3 fanboy out there). I know I have an extra populated SMB playfield right now I can pull it from if you need one...

I don't think I have ever seen that happen, LOL..

Ahhh gotcha.... I am sure I have one, PM me your address and I will throw one in the mail for you. I usually end up making my own switches when the originals aren't available.... Pretty easy to do with a couple of needlenose pliers...

I am assuming it is part number 26485?

If so, I am sure I have one.... I will have to look when I get home, but it shouldn't be an issue...

Sys3s used at least two different switches in the trough.

For example, SG (later Sys3) uses the following:

Trough - 25938 - http://www.marcospecialties.com/control/keywordsearch?SEARCH_STRING=25938

Outhole - 26927 - http://www.marcospecialties.com/control/keywordsearch?SEARCH_STRING=26927

SFII (earlier Sys3 - like Wipe Out):

Trough - 29346 - http://www.marcospecialties.com/control/keywordsearch?SEARCH_STRING=29346
(the image you have above)

Outhole - 26927 (same as above)

(I've confirmed these part #'s from the manuals.)

I don't have a Wipe Out manual to confirm but it's probably the same as SFII. You could call Steve back - or email him - to confirm the part numbers.

I'm guessing the switch screws to the bracket. If you don't have it, (bottom of the cab?) you could potentially buy the outhole switch and use the bracket from that with the trough switch above. I'd have to go look at my SFII tear down photos to confirm whether or not you could get away with that.

Stunning to me that Steve doesn't have this and Marco does.

I pulled the 25938 part number from the Stargate manual, but I'm positive that's not the switch that's installed. The installed switch (29346) matches the outline on the bottom of the playfield, so I'm reasonably sure it's original. Even the connector is for the 29346 switch.
The outhole switch has a different body so I don't think I could use that bracket. This switch appears to have the same body so I think this bracket might work, but there's no guarantee.

Either way, Ralph seems to think he has one so I'm very grateful and I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

If Ralph is pulling from SMB, it should be the same since it's also an earlier Sys3.

You're right - the outhole bracket won't work. Here's a pic from my SFII teardown with what the bracket looks like.

That - and the connectors on the harness as well. But age and heat makes them fall off - usually there are a bunch of them in the bottom of the cab. And of course, this harness went into the dishwasher and lost whatever stickers were left on the connectors

Sorry I missed this earlier - I've not seen these P-Channel MOSFETs used in Williams, DE or Stern boards - only Gottlieb. Or unless someone has modded the lamp matrix drivers on a Williams Sys 3-7 driver board.
