I've recently inherited several pinball machines in various states of repair. I'd helped my dad restore some of them when I was a teenager but I didn't understand the technical side at that point in time. What resources would you recommend to someone who wants to learn to restore their own machines with limited prior electronics knowledge?

Check out vid1900's tech guides on Pinside. And Pinwiki.


Ask on Pinside if you get stuck.
