I'm pretty newbish when it comes to working on arcade games. I've got some limited experience with electronics repair (mostly turntables) and little grasp on how electronics work.
Anyway, this question is for a standard Nintendo Coin Door (DK/DK jr/Mario/Popeye).
The previous owner wired up a free-play button by removing the wiring from the left coin mech and wiring to the button (that is located directly above the coin plate). The left coin mech, therefore, is inoperable.
What I'd like to do, is have both coin mechs and the free-play button operable.
What I was thinking about doing was to make a homemade Y connector and split the left coin-mech wire to both the mech and the button. Will this work?
If not, is there another way to work it?
