Some who followed my Maverick pinball thread know this is not working, unknown reason. I just went ahead and bought a new one for 400 bones. I thought somebody who does circuit board repair might be interested in tinkering around with it, without worry of breaking anything, cause it already doesn't work, and is free. Just pay for the shipping and it's yours. I would request that you fill me in on what is wrong with it if you can fix it, just for my curiosity.

email or pm if interested. Jeremy
 
So did potf77 ever get this thing to work. I am looking to buy a Bay Watch but the DMD is jacked on it and I really dont want to spend 450 on the display plus the cost of the game. If I knew I could fix the display I wouldnt be so worried.

Actually, I ended up with the DMD and I found the +12v shorted to ground and I haven't troubleshot it further. Currently I believe the on board transformer has shorted, but I will not know anything else until I desolder it. Taking this apart is going to be a lenghty process because I will have to desolder every line, vertical and horizontal, from the DMD to the circuit board.
