Ah that’s perfect. Thanks. I noticed the slotted bit underneath but wasn’t sure what shaped part fitted into it. Now to make one…..!

Delivery received! All the switches and electrics are a bit of mess. Compared to a pinball machine it’s pretty simple stuff however so should be able to sort all that pretty easily. However, after a quick look there’s a bit missing from the mech. There’s nothing connected to the device that releases ...

I’m guessing that may well stop it paying out.

Yes it should have an arm which will make contact between the inside ring and one or more of the outside studs. Looking in the manual I have this must be a very late model - all the steppers in the manual are the 'pinball' type solenoid steppers which I'm more familiar with. I'm not familiar wit ...

Fair enough. Am looking forward to having a play!

Apparently he’d previously given it someone many of us hold dear - ‘Fencing’ of EBay fame! The one who caused the download prot ...

Well I certainly don’t claim to be an ‘expert’, but I’ve fixed quite a lot of EM pinball machines in the past so can usually find my way around EM machines. It’s not always that easy ‘remotely’ however. If anyone has any EM stuff they need sorting I’m happy to consider it at reasonable rates. Just me ...

As above. What fire the label in the grey box say? Suspecting this might be a convertor too.

I think these backflashes were printed directly onto the plastic. You could replace by doing it the way Wondermatics did on their machines. I.e. scan and tidy the backflash on a computer and print onto thick card, then lay a 500 micron clear acetate sheet over the top before putting the hardware ...

No worked on this particular machine before but lots of pinballs. It is trickier without a schematic. Does the fuse blow as soon as the coin goes in or later after it’s activate the score motor? If the switches are gapped correctly and the tags where the wires join them are bent onto one another t ...
