    Weird flipper sticking problem on Doctor Who...help!?!

    Guys, I'm out of ideas for this Doctor Who. Never seen anything like this. The right flipper sticks up sometimes. Seems like it is slightly held magnetically. Turning the game off doesn't immediately release it. But eventually it does. I have replaced the entire flipper assembly -...

    Super GT deluxe weird motor problem

    Guys, I have a super GT deluxe in my arcade - the one that kind of rocks back and forth left/right as you go around turns to make it feel (supposedly) like you're racing. It worked fine for 10 years, then all of a sudden it doesn't seem to work right in game mode. I've replaced the steering...

    Need help with a G-07 in Minneapolis area (Hastings to be precise)

    Guys, Just sold a game (Defender) to a guy in Hastings, MN. It has a G-07. I replaced all the caps, but left the original flyback in it because it was working and I burned it in for a couple days so I thought it would be ok. It appears to have died on him right away (although it could be...

    2 G07 issues - need some quick direction

    Guys, I'm struggling with a couple G07 issues and the flowchart isn't helping me. 1) voltage too high - I've put in new VR, flyback, HOT, width coil (obviously caps), but it doesn't seem to be regulating at 120V. If I set my variac at about 70% the picture is great and the voltages are...

    Need monitor / game service in Phoenix, AZ

    Guys, I was contacted by someone I sold a Donkey Kong to about 10 years ago. She just moved to Phoenix and says when she moved the game in, the screen is now black. Game is playing blind. So probably either a power, connection or monitor issue. I don't remember what monitor is in there but...
