Hey all! Anyone know where I can find the switches for ‘Goalie is Right’ and Goalies is Left? I think they’re switches 43 and 44. I can find the other ones around the goalie but not that one.

Game days it’s having an issue with these and the goalie doesn’t go side to side as much as it used to.

Edit: why is it that as soon as I ask I always find it, haha. Turns out these switches are on the underside of the playfield at the end of the goalie rotating mechanism. One of my wires had popped off needing to be reattached.

Spectacular. Thanks, @justanotherrat!

Really nice of you to make this available.

Would you have any issues if someone in North America made these for others for a small fee plus shipping?

Not all of us have access to the necessary equipment.

I plan on sending JustAnotherRat a little '$omething-$omething' for his work.

I would love to buy these if you (or someone) would be willing to make them here in US since I don't have a machine or friend with the machine.

I too am willing to buy them them if they were available and JustAnotherRat gave his blessing.

I am in Canada but these are small and flat so shipping should be modest.

Any thoughts on this, WCS94 community?

Have you followed the wiring from the coil to ensure it’s not broken somewhere?

Basic coil troubleshooting next:
1. Is the coil getting it's +50v feed?
2. If the transistor firing?

Half way through a restoration on mine - would love to add a set of these if anyone makes them available for sale.

Yes - it looks like wires are good

This is where my inexperience comes in. I don’t know the answer to either of these, or what they mean!

Quick question before trying to learn how to do what you’re describing. . Is there a fuse specific to the goal popper?

It looks like the goal popper coil is a non-diode coil. Would this change my troubleshooting direction?

No problem at all, in fact I'd much prefer for that to happen than for someone to make and sell them for a profit.

Thanks but nothing required. Very little work for me to create that. I have asked for enough help in this thread that the assistance covers it.

thanks frisbez for pointing him in the right direction!

Will be back in the club for the 3th time. Really miss this game and will keep it in my small collection at home.

It needs a deep cleaning and fresh plastics.
I was wondering if somebody has pictures of a Wc94 with clear starpost and clear pop bumper caps instead of the factor teal ones?

My first one had teal plastic posts and yellow rubber but to change it to other colors.

Thanks.

Hi all
Which fuse controls the diverter hold? My diverter will fire in testing but nothing happens on hold test
It was working yesterday now not

Greetings WCS94 owners

I have owned my game for about 6 months and really enjoy it

My son and I were under the hood and noticed a couple head scratchers

1 - there is a smaller hanging connector by the ball trough / flipper region that has no connector
2 - my son claims that we may have a early production game. he showed me these roll over switch holes. but with no switch’s if anyone has the switches. they are under the right ramp near the pop bumpers. I will add a image of the connector later in the day but just figured I would ask about the switch.

Does anyone know what part that is?(the bracket holding the wire ramp) part no. or where to buy it.

My WCS doesn't have that so I "need" it

Thanks
/Rod

If you figure that out let me know as I checked everything I could and never found it myself.

I will !

btw, on your WCS, are the flippers strong enough to do a post pass? because I can't do that on mine and I have no idea if that's normal or not.

I can post pass on mine, I always though stronger flippers would make posts passes harder. I’ve found it difficult on newer Sterns but any older games I’ve played have been able to do it.

Game dependent as the location and angle of slings are what I believe affects passing the most.

BKSOR is easy but Mando is very difficult.

I just realised that I can post pass from the right flipper, but not the left.

The parts list has something ID’ed as “ 01-13025 Ramp Support” but I can’t find evidence of that part anywhere online. Sounds like it could be it.

exactly, that item is nowhere to be found

That piece is welded to the ramp on mine, so likely will not be available as a separate part. It is a simple bent piece of metal that you should be able to fabricate fairly easily and JB Weld it to the wire form. I'll make a dimensional drawing and take a closer picture...

Thats a picture of my old wcs you have there.

I made that bracket mysellf its not the original one
Couldnt find one so i made one mysellf

Edit: I'll post the measurements and drawing tonight...

Hey Rod, here is my bracket with dimensions (my drafting skills are pretty rusty):

thank you so much!

Nobody has suggestions for me here? While I still have this problem I did add a trophy next to the final draw hole

I would read up in the manual and see if there is a fuse that operates the diverter hold. That’s all I got.

Solenoid list, p2 (inside of cover), Sol. No 16 Diverter Hold

Fuse list 1-45, Power Drive Board F104 Solenoid #9-#16 3A, 250V, S.B

Awesome thanks for the help!

Finally (accidentally) hit the 5-way combo at the start of a new game the other evening...it scores 30 million and gives a little chime.

sequence as such:

left ramp, ball is fed to right flipper by diverter;
left ramp, ball is fed to left flipper via ramp;
right ramp, ball is fed back to left flipper;
right ramp, ball is fed back to left flipper;
right ramp again to lock ball and award the 5 way combo.

Keep in mind, that the state of the game may only make this combo possible at certain times (as having any of the skills lit would prevent the diverter from bringing the ball over to the right ramp, etc.)

Nice work, I have never seen the combo yet! I wonder if it’s possible after the lock too? Or only starting when no skills are awarded

Hi all, I was having trouble with my magnet save but found it was a blown fuse. I went to play it again and the fuse blew again. I have heard the issue is the length of the magma save but I can’t seem how to adjust the time for the magnet hold under the menu settings. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Also, when I start my game the soccer ball spins for a super long time before stopping. Is this normal? Is there a way to turn off the soccer ball when I’m not playing the game? Thanks all!

I thought there was a ball motor setting but quick glance couldn't find it. The Magnasave setting though seems to be A.2 31 in this manual

https://www.arcade-museum.com/manuals-pinball/W/World_Cup_Soccer_OPS.pdf

Soccer ball spins whenever the goal is lit...so right from the start of your first ball until you make it. Then starts again when the goal is lit gain by rolling over the four rollover buttons. Can be annoying when small children are playing, and they walk away mid game, leaving the ball spinning for a loooonnnnggggg time.

The magna save can often times be traced to a short in the wiring for it; if I recall, it's ganged up with a bunch of other things and you have to be sure a single strand isn't touching something else, though that could be the wiring for the target that enables it...been a while since I dealt with an issue with the magnet.

Sorry should have clarified, when I power on the machine, the ball spins before I even start to play for a super long time. Is that normal when you boot the game?
