I was recently given a Brunswick Aspen pinball and I'm trying to clean it up, make it work well, and then give it to a friend of mine so his kids can play it. I purchased a kit for it with new rubbers, bulbs, etc...and put all of those on. I cleaned and waxed the playfield as well. Also repainted the legs and put new leg levelers on.
Here's the problem: the thumper bumper doesn't seem to work and the flippers won't activate when the ball gets down to them if the ball has hit the thumper bumper first. The flippers seem to work otherwise.
Anyone know what the problem might be and how to fix it? Alternatively, is there a pinball repair tech in the western Chicago suburbs that could take a look at it and fix it? I don't know much about fixing this machine.
Thanks,
Greg
