Greetings to All,
Does anyone know what value diode this is on the bonus ladder on my Timewarp?
Can someone also explain to me why they used this diode as opposed to the standard 1N4004?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you so much.
Sincerely,
John

Thank you Cheddar for your prompt response! In looking at the schematics I could not find any notes making special reference to these diodes. Cheddar what is confusing is that there is a combination of both types of diodes attached to the underside lamp sockets. There are the standard 1N4004's and these. So now I can move forward in my next task at hand. Thank you for your helping hand!!

Hi Rikoshay,
Thank you for sharing. I am substituting the diode in the picture with 1N4004's (ref. to what Cheddar said). In all of my string of early William's SS games that I have overhauled, (Hot Tip, World Cup, Disco Fever, Phoenix), I have not seen this diode on the computer controlled light sockets.

Hi Quench,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts on this matter as well! I really appreciate everyone's input on this topic. What has become important to me now, is that of substitution. If I can swap out the 1N4148's with a 1N4004's that is really sweet. For I have plenty of these in my little inventory. But none of the 1N4148's. If I had to order these diodes than I would; (i.e. if they still make them). If I am blessed someday to acquire a William's "Flash", for that would be next in my string of William's games, I wonder if they continued to combine both diodes (on the computer lamp sockets) in that game as well?

Hi Tuukka,
Thank you for your contribution to this topic as well! Your understanding provides me with further confirmation on why I should use 1N4004's in my new lamp socket install, particularly with "Time Warp."
