Thanks I'll work on that, maybe tomorrow.

Resistors So you're saying, if I can get them use 1w resistors like the 1-7s on my board, if not, It's OK to mix in .5w? Also does that 16.25 on R5 reading mean anything?

Testing Results I started testing the resistors with the following results. R 12 is definitely fried. R-5 is giving me a reading of 16.25K. R-2 reads OK. Just looking at the resistors brings up another question. R 1-7 are substantially bigger than R 8-14. The replacements that I got from...

Resistors Thanks all. Just getting my supplies together

Resistors The replacement resistors that I was able to find locally have a 5% tolerance. The schematic calls for a 10% tolerance. Will the 5% ones work?

Score display Just as I was getting ready to test the electronics, the segment b came back on, unfortunately it only stayed on for one game then went out again. Is that possible if the resister is blown or is that indicative of something else?

Checking Cables Hey Brent, Should I reseat the cables while the machine is on or off. Can I disconnect a payer score card i.e. player 1,2, 3 or 4 while the machine is on? Or, should I shut it down, disconnect then turn it back on again?

Gorgar Display Thanks Sprout for the suggestions. I will try and test those resistors and reseat the connectors. The e segment on the Master and 1&2 is working and has not had a problem, only on 3&4. I'll test R5 anyway but it may only be R12. I don't have a test probe, only a MM so the IC...

Gorgar Display I will try that tomorrow.

Master display pics Here is a pic of the display board and all the electronics.

Have some new display issues on my Gorgar machine. The segment e has been missing since I got the machine in January. Last week, When I turned it on after not using it for a week, segment "b" went missing from the Master, player1,2 displays. I opened it up and jiggled some connectors and now...

I'm in Chester County, PA about an hour from H'burg.

Thanks for all the help. I live in the western Suburbs of Philadelphia. There is a guy, not too far away, Gameroom Collectables. He had some old playfields for sale, but he just bought a Gorgar machine that he is going to fix up and is using the parts for that. I may be able to get some...

Hey, also any suggestions on finding those Stopper Arms or do you think I need to replace the whole switch mech? Also, the #89 bulbs. Is it possible that they are both missing because the were causing some trouble, maybe causing overheating? As you can tell I worry a lot that changing things...

First off, That's a great photoset, Lindsey. Did you repaint the playfield? It looks great. Also How did you get the underneath photo's? Did you turn the playfield over? As far as my machine goes. I just cleaned it, and put new rubber on. During that process I tried to lift the playfield...
