    Picked up a used Zizzle POTC pin for Christmas gift and all the LED's were working. But now the blue one to the far left of the group of five in the mid center of the playfield will not illuminate. I have taken off the bottom of the pin to get access. This LED is like nothing I have seen before. It looks like it has it's own little PCB on it, as do each LED's in the game.
    Anyway to test, repair or find a replacement LED for this? ..hopefully before Christmas?
    Thanks!

    Quoted from zizzlemeplease:

    just unsolder and solder in a new one, pay attention to the direction of the "anvil" so you get the polarity correct. had to replace several of them in a couple zizzles. "anvil" being the shape of the metal inside the LED itself, kinda |_/| , if you look very closely. 5mm water clear wide angle (x-color) if you can get them, but the dome tops are ok too. find them ebay or amazon.
    a little easier said than done, they dont give much of anything for wire length. I've snipped them, stripped them 1/8" to solder connect back in and a dab of hot glue to re-insulate it.

    is the type arcade buttons you'll need for good fit and performance, some drilling required. theres also possibility of finding higher quality-capacity momentary switches for mounting on the existing pcb's in the stock button assemblies. wimpy flipper button switches was zizzle killer #1

    No shaker motor in this one (was that guy joking?)..lol
    Thanks for the reply but your two links are to flipper buttons, not the LED's I seek.
