WTB Williams 6 digit System 6 Display

[Ryno176]

Looking for a 6 digit display for a Williams System 6 Gorgar machine Qty 2 if possible as one is fully dead and other is missing top segments, may replace with the new but if someone has a couple laying around for not too much let me know and I would rather go that route. Thanks

Just an FYI, missing segments could be an issue on the driver board

And one wonky display can cause other displays to error

Learned this one first hand.

If you are missing segments odds are it's a burnt resistor on the driver board. If it keeps burning up resistors it's a bad tube somewhere. This system drives me nuts.

It is an aftermarket driver board and they have been swapped to other outputs and it follows the displays. Appreciate the device I have reflowed others in past as well to fix them but not this system. Still looking for a couple to replace

Not sure if this helps, but I bought some aftermarket ones from Wolffpack. You need to assemble them with some basic soldering skills, but it's relatively painless. You can get all 5 for under $150 shipped.

This display will replace the displays used on Williams System 3, 4, or 6 pinball machines. This kit replaces all 5 displays used on these machines. Note, these displays cannot be mixed with the original displays and must replaced as a set. This is shipped as a kit of parts. Everything you need...

Here's how mine looks. They are LEDs but look like the originals and blend in with incandescent backglasses nicely:


Here's me assembling them on a Live stream:
