The playfield is in the cabinet!





The underside



And a junk playfield glass is slid in place and secured. Gotta have a way to keep things clean!



Looks like I have a few issues to work through - not unexpected with a game that was bought as a project and in parts. Had 1 bulb in the lamp matrix stuck on - guessing a diode since it's just 1 lamp and not a whole row/column, and all the flashers in the game lock on unless I remove a certain connector. While I was troubleshooting that, I got the always unpleasant burning electronics smell, and when I rebooted the game, it said CHECK F114 / F115 and of course the switch matrix was then dead. No burnt coils, most logical thought is the lamp socket that is stuck on may have been shorted and that took out BR1.

I'll get back to it, but I'm done for the evening. Got plenty of fun to look forward to tomorrow.
