  1. Funhouse fails to boot

    Lately my Funhouse had been acting up, randomly resetting - sometimes even if just sitting, powered on. Since I've owned it (not long), every time I power it on it would buzz through the speakers, sometimes rather loud and for 2-3 seconds at most. Now when I power it on, I can hear the buzz of...
  2. Pinbits.com

    Can't say enough good things about the folks at pinbits. They always have what they say they have on their site, and even some stuff that's not listed. If they have something for a pin you're ordering parts for, they'll send you a friendly note or email and they're always fast!
  3. Can't figure out how to replace start button lamp

    Can\'t figure out how to replace start button lamp The start button on my Funhouse no longer lights, but I can't figure out how to get in there to replace the lamp. I was able to get the microswitch off, but I don't see how to replace the lamp. Help?
  4. Where can I get a map of rubber locations?

    I bought a rubber kit from Marco, and while it came with a location reference, it doesn't list locations for everything in the kit. My Funhouse came with all black rubber and white flippers. I'd like to replace it with the kit I got from Marco that is the factory-correct white rubbers and yellow...
  5. Funhouse switch locations?

    Self test said to check 3 switches (sounds like a half-assed shop job, eh?). I fixed the ramp entrance switch (55 - it had fallen under where it was supposed to be), but it's still complaining about switches 33 and 35. I've looked through the manual and I've found that 33 is Upper Left Gangway...
  6. Bay Area Amusements? No response, I want a refund

    I ordered a Funhouse plastics set from Bay Area Amusements. They replied: I had told them that I may be interested in holding the order if they were going to get the playfield set back in stock. I haven't received the rest of my order. BAA reply: I told them I wanted to refund the whole...
  7. New to pinball, where to buy? (1988 Cyclone)

    I'm picking up my Funhouse next week, but I'd also like to own Cyclone (the 1988 Williams pin). I've checked with the local ops (nobody has one) and I posted a WTB ad on Craigslist (in Toys and Games), receiving no responses. Where can I go about finding one to buy (besides eBay - which has...
  8. Convert Pole Position I to II? Trblshootin help?

    Can it be done? What ROMs do I need to move? I bought a PPII board on eBay ("untested") that comes up with a bunch of zeros and other characters on the screen overlayed on some graphics. What can I do to identify the problem? I have a logic probe, but not necessarily the knowledge of the use...
  9. Vision Pro 13" sync issue.

    Just got my 13" Vision Pro monitor from DarthVader (thanks again!), but I can't get it to sync properly with my DK. The DK was connected to the negative sync on the last monitor, but the VP uses composite sync (correct?). It should "just work", right?
  10. Price for a Funhouse in average condition?

    I don't think anything is broken (ie: Rudy works), but the playfield looks like it's pretty dirty and probably beat up. What would be a decent price for this? The seller is asking $1500.
  11. Pots for the neck board on a WGk4900?

    I have two bad pots on the neckboard of my k4900, anyone know what they are and where to get them? The only number I see on them is "501" stamped on the metal.
  12. Firefox yoke same as Star Wars?

    I'm hopefully picking up my cockpits soon and just wanted to verify that the Firefox yoke is the same as the Star Wars. The yoke in Star Wars is missing a piece of the handle on the left side from what I can tell. I'm also not positive that the Star Wars has PCBs or monitors, but I want the...
  13. MAME JPAC help

    I've searched on "teh google™", but I can't find an answer. I'm converting an old, ratty SI cocktail cabinet to a vertical MAME cabinet. I bought a JAMMA harness and have everything wired now except for the sync. On the JAMMA harness, there's a single composite sync wire, where would that go on...
  14. Isolation transformer help?

    I have an iso transformer in my cabinet and didn't pay attention to the mess of wires when I de-soldered them from the transformers. I have AC coming in to a filter, which then needs to go to the iso transformer. I have 4 terminals on the bottom of the transformer: 0v - 115v - 125v - E From my...
  15. Moving JAMMA pins? How?

    I ordered a JAMMA harness with the rest of my stuff from Ultimarc and it's missing wires (the pins are there) for video sync and video ground. There are some wires that I won't be using that I'd like to move to those locations, but I can't figure out how to remove the pins. Is there an easy way...
  16. My experience with mamemarquees.com

    I had to post something about my excellent experience with Scott Prior at mamemarquees.com. I had ordered a repro Space Invaders II cocktail underlay about a week ago. I got my order on Thursday, but it was the wrong underlay (SI, not SI II). I emailed Scott about it and he admitted the error...
  17. WG 25K5515 bands at top and red is "muddy" (720)

    I've tried messing with every pot on this thing with no correction. I re-capped this video board with a cap kit for a K4900, but maybe I missed a cap? I replaced the following: C201, C205, C301, C303, C310, C311, C313, C315, C351, C352, C354, C373, C506, C507, C701, and C702. Anyone know if I...
  18. Likely picking up 3 cockpits in various conditions

    I'm excited, I'm picking up a Star Wars cockpit (I'm assuming it's empty), a Pole Position (or PP II, couldn't tell), and a Firefox cockpit. The Firefox cockpit is pretty small, and I don't know if it still has the LD player (or anything else, for that matter.) Just had to tell someone that...
  19. Good layout for cocktail multicade?

    I'm MAMEing my SI II cocktail and was wondering if anyone had a good layout for the control panel. I'm thinking a 4/8 way from Ultimarc (already on the way) and 3 buttons in a Track & Field-type layout (obviously condensed.) Anyone have a visio layout or something similar or maybe sees something...
  20. 19" monitor ID and recommendation for shallow 19"?

    I picked up a Space Invaders II cabinet that's been converted to a Ms. Pac Man and thusly has a 19" color monitor installed. In this case, I can't open the cabinet as intended because the neck of the monitor hits the side of the cabinet (doesn't clear the coin box without help.) Is there a 19"...
