Classic pinball machine refurbish/repair

[BOWtechnicianTX]

The last coil for the left flipper is done! Very happy with how well the assembly cleaned up, and also how the circuitry was cleaned up. This is all stuff no one will ever see, but I will know the underside will be clean and efficiently functional.

I’ll have to post before and after separately.

CPU has arrived and it’s beautiful haha.

Stopped by during work to get it off porch. So I won’t be able to install until this evening.

Installed and we have life!



All but one matrix light is working.

The diverter needs some more tuning, the score display ribbon cables need replacing, and a few minor additional fixes. But game can be played for the first time in atleast 30 years based on Texas game inspection tag!

The easiest way is to upload to youtube and copy and paste the link into a post. I think rumble has the same capability

That whole project is freakin bad azz !!! You did a phenomenal job !!

[BOWtechnicianTX]

Thank you! I’m sure I looked like Clark Griswold when I flipped the switch and all the lights came on! Wayyy less issues than I thought I was gonna have.

Have a few minor things to address, but now my focus will slowly transition to exterior (cabinet, legs, art, etc.

Glad to see you got the board and installed. I bet that's a great feel-n know-n your almost done!
