I've got a Williams Zig Zag (1964) that doesn't have the score cards. I would sure appreciate it if you could take a few pics of the score cards on your machine.
I'm hoping I can ask Inkochito to make the cards for me... for a donation, of course.

Howdy! Just picked up a Zig Zag, anyone have the schematic or manual (mainly startup sequence) so I can try and get it started?

Quoted from wiredoug:i have the schematic but i cant find it.. will keep looking
I would love a copy as well if you can find it! I just got a Zig Zag game last week.
Quoted from lowbeau67:Nice. I've got a wing ding that I'm refurbishing.
Clearcoated playfield in April and will finish
putting back together this winter. Beautiful backglass
And playfield on these.[quoted image]
Looks Great!
You wouldnt happen to know where to get the head rear door would you? Missing mine, reverse wedge head version.

I'm still looking for the instruction cards for Zig Zag.
I've got the Point Score Adjustments card to add to the file.
Can anyone here send me some images?

Hope this helps. Only one card on left apron. Small card on right apron is for pricing.

The right side card is indeed an A.S.C. card (already available from my website).
I just picked up a Zig Zag. Question, is the motor supposed to keep running in the cabinet, even when the game isn’t being played? Everything seems to work perfect except for that.
Quoted from Da-Shaker:is the motor supposed to keep running in the cabinet
Not usual operation
probably some switch stuck open or closed or a relay not actuating properly in
game to go into the game over mode or proceed forward in start up sequence.
First switch stack I always check is in the coin door.
then proceed from there to where schematic might recommend.
Quoted from pinwiztom:Thing I would like to know is where to get replacement balls (multi-color) for the game's
backbox feature.[quoted image]
What is the diameter of the balls?
Is this something for you? (10mm balls)

Thanks
good info resource.
Not sure what size as my games (Wing Ding and Zig Zag)
are at Pacific Pinball Museum in Alameda CA currently,
They might be closer to 20mm or 0.75inch diameter, If I rememeber correctly
I’ll be going through my game today and will try to get a measurement. I’m assuming they’re pretty light weight.
Because I’m out of space, I’ll be selling my Zig Zag. Everything seems to be working. It just needs a cleaning and some rubbers, which I’ll do. What would be a good asking price?
Play field 6-7
Cabinet 5-6
Back glass 8
I also have a great looking Pro Football, which is super fun. I’d probably give it a 9 overall.
Yeah
I think 7/8in is correct from when i had the game with balls in hand
last time I measured them a few years ago.
But probably anything between 0.75 to 1.0 inch would work,
(or maybe 20 to 25 mm)
if one would replace them all to match in size.
I think they are a phenolic plastic, not unlike the larger balls GTB used
in their games (ala 300, Super Soccer, MIBS etc.)
Quoted from Da-Shaker:Does anybody else have this lovely pop bumper over the girls face or am I the lucky one?

What a horrible hack. Keeps you from shooting at the center kick out hole.
People who do that to games need an ass beating.
no its a hack.. think you'll find thats a gottlieb bracket even.
i had a raceway someone did it too as well. seems someone out there liked to do it to make games more lively.
Quoted from Da-Shaker:If that’s a hack, someone went through a lot of trouble to prevent going up the middle. I wonder if it’s just an early edition.
[quoted image]
Hacked it with a Gottlieb bracket, and then even put a wrong era bumper cap on it. And they couldn't even be bothered with trying to center it on the playfield. That just ridiculous.
Double ass beating.

Getting better

Additionally I have one more question, when racking 9 balls and you hit the lit center kickout, it is suppose to score a replay. Are all the racked balls also empty and you get to shoot for 9 more?? Or they stay racked until game end?
