    Do you allow children to abuse your games?

After they had left, closer inspection of the machine led me to find sticky vanilla ice cream in the...

    The hunt is back on

    Hello friends, A while ago I sold off my entire collection, thinking I would never look back. Recently, my thumbs have been itching and I've started looking to rebuild a collection. I was surprised to see the lack of games on ebay, et. al., and whatever games are available, the prices seem to...

    satans hollow - problem with coin meter

    Hi - when I short J4-21 on a satans hollow midway board, the coin meter should increment. problem is, it doesn't .. i've traced it, and i can't seem to find the problem. Now, I have a problem with the roms, but usually coin meters don't need rom's to work, the TTL logic is built right on the...

I recently bought a Satan's hollow, and while fixing a bridge between the rom set, a couple of the rom legs broke off. it's broken right at the chip edge. i cant get a connection to even dump the ROM. SO.... I was hoping someone here had a...

    Last annoying fix - Please help me finish :)

    disconnect one of the wires from the target.. take your logic probe and connect to the loose wire and to the other target wire... if your probe pulses you have a component problem.. trace back to the board.. repeat the test all the way including and past the driver to the chip pinout.. you can...

    Williams Adjust Switch 48 Right Flipper

    i agree with ken. also, you may want to check the right flipper selenoid.. you'll see a diode connecting from pin 3(+) to pin 2 (-) .. make sure it's not blown..

    Time Machine Pinball repair progress

    just check if its redundant with your ohm meter.. if theres resistance between the same wires, you may have to verify with your schematic.. worth the extra time rather than blowing components...imho.. nice job btw.. looks great..!

    How do you wash your PCB's?

    Hand surface mounting eh? I congratulate you. That takes a steady hand and a good eye. I only know of a few people who manually create pcb's with surface mount components. In any event, I always do a 3 bath cleaning for pcb's. 1st bath I use distilled water with sulfur (wieght ratio 1...
