Just wanted to send a note to say I am an EM pinball guy and found your thread after I acquired a Rockola 478. I started readin and thought, "Oh no, he is describing my machine." Dame disconnected chords and plugs. I bought mine in Holland, MI from the granddaughter of the PREV owner who passed away. Glad to see that you are alive and that you were able to get the machine running. There is hope for my 478.
