So silly me bought a project without looking too much into it. The game itself looks pretty nice. Unfortunately, the bridge on the right side is not only cracked off, but it’s not with the game at all. I’m wondering what my options are here. It looks like the cpr set may include the railing but not the base?

I don’t have it set up yet because I’m waiting on legs. But while the building is there, it looks like it’s cracked off I’ll try and get a picture in a bit

Here is the picture of the damage, if you’re able to do anything, it would be very much appreciated. I will definitely order supports as for the moment the other side is not cracked. Also, can someone take a picture of the right side lock mechanism? Mine had a deflector on it but it looks like it makes it impossible for the ball to escape?

I figured it was supposed to jump after the fact. I have some solenoids not working that I am sure are tied to something blown. Haven’t tested yet but the ones I know for sure aren’t firing are the outhole, ball trough, right lock, the ramps seem to be able to drop but not raise. The left lock works, flipper work, both sets of slings work. I’m sure there are flashers not working related to the solenoids too but haven’t done a full test.

What does everyone think for LED color on this game? I must admit, the incandescents on it look stunning with the light show in attract mode, but I also know the drawbacks of incandescent bulbs. To me this game is screaming for warm white bulbs but I’ve also seen the cool white that looks good in the back glass. What color do you all have and can I see what each looks like?

Does anyone have this issue with their game? Now it should be said this has not happened during gameplay as I haven’t been able to shop/test it properly yet, but the ball seems very prone to getting stuck on the rescue shot, particularly if the ball drifts to the right side. I checked the level of the playfield and it is showing 7 degree pitch with no bias left or right. Is there something to adjust this ramp? It seems very flat towards to top and it is also angled toward the front which seems to get the ball in a corner stuck.

Shoutout to toyotaboy for helping me make progress on this thing! With the custom PETG he sent, I was able to trim new plastic and match up to old plastic to recreate my missing bridge piece! Will have to plastic weld it to make a smooth transition but on the way to having a functional game!

Do you happen to still have the lower right building? Mine is cracked off and I’m attempting to fuse new plastic to old plastic but one that is intact and usable would be better. Let me know. Thanks

So champagne version DOES have side art. It is simply a small cutout of the same Fire! Logos featured on the side of the regular cabinet that was stuck on to the polished oak finish rather than a full screen or decal stuck to plywood. Unfortunately, the oak finish didn’t provide a great sticking surface so the artwork fell off on a lot of them. Here’s an example (not my picture)

I wish I could get mine going, it sits there mocking me. I completed the vast electrical work It needed but have been putting off modifying the physical stuff to make it work. My horseshoe ramp is warped on one side in the direct center of the ball path causing hang ups and the right side building balcony was completely missing so can’t lock balls. So far I’ve gotten custom PETG for the right side, the brackets, custom made L brackets to hold the fence, and a fence piece. I really just need to hunker down and combine the new Petg to old and carefully reform the horseshoe ramp. It is electrically sound and I sometimes turn it on just to hear the attract mode and with how often it makes noise it’s like it’s begging me to finish

On most system 11s, the music is generated by the sound board while the speech is generated on the main MPU board. I don’t have the exact location off the top of my head but do know that chip should be in a socket near the top, left hand side of the MPU

Do your SRC networks directly above the battery holder look good? My whirlwind had strange speech distortion and errors on occasion and then I replaced the SRCs and all was well

Oh yowza. I’d be shocked if that wasn’t the source of your issues. Those ICs are toast.

Is the knocker plugged in on the backbox? The connector is often undone to reduce noise. If it is, are there any other solenoids acting up and not working?

So the transistor for the bell and knocker are the same one. It switches via the A/C relay. Theoretically, if the knocker is the only thing not working and all other “A” side solenoids are working. It most likely means there is a break in the wiring to the knocker. When you say it tests fine, are you substituting it in a different location or are you saying it works in test mode but not gameplay? Are you getting voltage to the knocker? Go to test mode and coil test and advance until you get to the knocker, do you have power?

Just checking if anyone has any extra right hand side buildings with the balcony somewhat intact. Mine was sheared off and missing when I got the game so I want a piece I can reinforce with the brackets and get my game operational. Thanks

Sent you a PM. Could really use the right side building.

Definitely above the plastic ramp

I believe the default high scores are the lowest available. Don’t worry if you aren’t t hitting them yet. Soon, you’ll surpass every one of them
