Stellar Wars
Williams, 1979Hello, my friend has a stellar wars that he has just brought back to life and I redid all the rubbers and plastics for him, but when we play the ball shoots fine and after a few seconds on the field the pin tilts itself.
He has all cut all the tilt lines to try and solve this but the machine continues to Tilt.
Does anyone have a solution to this?
Thanks for your time everyone!
Try disconnecting coin door and see if it works. If it still tilts you have a short somewhere else. It's a start and common to have shorts in these older doors.
There are 4 tilt switches; the rolling ball, the plum bob, slam tilt on the coin door, and the playfield tilt. Try disconnecting them all or running a switch test, they are 01/02/07/49. Maybe try simulating play when those tests are running... bang, shake, etc.
After that you are looking at testing items in the switch matrix. Not something I've done, there are probably guides online for it.
