Bought my first pin yesterday, a Lethal Weapon 3. I have a few questions on it, since I don't have any experience with one.
1) Can someone explain to me how the drop targets are supposed to behave? I have started to read the manual, but a quick explanation by someone that has experience with this game would be nice. They don't seem to be resetting properly, or maybe they aren't supposed to like I would think
2) Could someone steer me in the direction of troubleshooting the DMD? The bottom 3 rows do not light, but the rest work fine. I've reseated all of the ribbon cables, but no luck.
3) It's missing the little pin with the rubber on it that should sit between the outlane and the next lane on the left side, by the karate kickout lane. I would imagine these are easy to buy a replacement for?
All in all it's in pretty good shape. Playfield looks like it will cleanup nicely, and the cabinet has a few nicks but nothing bad. The topper is there.
I've fixed two broken wires so far, one that was keeping a pop bumper from firing, and the other running to the bottom speaker. Much better now that it has some bass.
This should be a good first pin for me to cleanup and cut my teeth on. Once I get an idea of what I'm doing with this one, I'll start to look for a nice Williams table from the late 80's to early 90's. Those were my favorites as I spent too many quarters on them between classes and at the bar when I was in college.
