I replaced the defective switching power supply with the suggested power supply and all is good. Thanks

Thank You for your help.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a good replacement? Would one of these work or is there a better one?

Yes, it is soldered in.

I lost video and sound while playing a game of SKYKID. I tried testing and I get 120 at input, but no +12v or +5v at terminals. I disassembled to find this goo. Fuse is blown inside housing also. My question is that I see new ones that are +5v16a and +12v4A but mine was +5v11A and +12v2a Are...

I will definitely bookmark this

The old one was cement based. Does that matter? Is that Asteroids Deluxe in your pic?

This is what I see

I did see one that said mine was discontinued and to use the 10watt version and they are available. I know the wire broke off in the resistor and I need to solder another one on, but not sure on the tolerances of using a different one. Any knowledge you can offer will definitely help. Thanks

I looked at Digikey and I can only order in multiples of 1000. I found 1 site that sells a minimum 8 for 1.25 each plus shipping. Just didn't want to spend $30 on 8 resistors. I think there are only 2 in the whole game.

Hi I am looking for 1 of these for a Sorcerer Pinball machine. I think the part number is PW7-330-10%, which is 330 OHM 7 Watt 10% resistance. I found 1 place that sells them but you have to buy in bulk. Anybody have 1 or 2 they would be willing to sell?

After examining the board, I found this. I'm not sure what caused it or if this is even the problem. F5 in the schematic is a multiplexer in the Vector Timer. I looked up the data sheet on LS157N and the pin that looks the worst is the Vcc pin 16. Can I test voltage at that pin with my...

The fuse on the deflection board that was blown when I received it was at F101. It did not blow when I replaced it and turned the game on.
