U2000 and U5000 service kits

[KenLayton]

These models are plagued with problems. Wells-Gardner issued three different "service kits" to correct/modify/upgrade the circuitry to make it reliable. You need to call the Wells-Gardner parts department in McCook, Illinois and order these:

S04E0000-000F Service Kit, U2000/U5000 Power Supply Update

S05F0000-000F Service Kit, U2000/U5000 Vertical Sweep Update

S01J0000-000F Service Kit, U5000 Horizontal Output Transistor Update

I now have written fresh instructions & parts lists for these kits as well as scanned some drawings I made to accompany the instructions.

Here's link to buy the vertical sweep and horizontal output kits:

I think the power supply kit may be discontinued, but with my instructions you can make the kit.

if you still have my e-mail, can you send me your instructions for future use? Won't be posted anywhere without your permission.

I have one around here somewhere, but not the others...

Is this info posted anywhere Ken? I have this in bits and pieces but getting it in one spot would be great to have.

Are these kits still available from WG? Or even the schematics/parts?

I just resurrected a U5000, but I want it to last! =)

Don't know if can still buy them from the parts department at Wells-Gardner or not. You'll have to telephone them and ask.

Mecha on here cleaned them and reposted a while back so contact him and he can point you to the cleaned version because the original is a PITA to read.

BTW: we should have about all the parts from all three kits in stock if you need anything.

Sucks that Google products fail so often and the great KenLayton isn't with us anymore to move his info to places that still exist
