Williams United Seville Shuffle Alley malfunctions after move
Sorry if this is the wrong forum for shuffle alleys. Figured it was close enough to pinball since it is Williams.
A friend of a friend bought a Williams/United Seville shuffle alley and moved it into his pizza joint. It worked 100% before the move but now it never advances from the 1st frame and the game select button doesn't work (ie its stuck on "Regulation").
Since the game was working before the move, I doubt it could be a dirty switch or relay.
Opened up the backbox and saw four connectors below the chime box. The connector pins were covered with some light colored oxidation. I cleaned the pins with a dremel and a wire brush. Did the same to the other similar connectors but it didn't fix the problem. Note to self - bring a dust mask when cleaning with a dremel unless you like breathing some nasty dust.
Never worked on an EM machine before and I don't have schems. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
