I just got mine going the other night, Had a flipper issue that stumped me.
When I bought the machine (project no goer), I managed to get it fired up after some main board reapirs and some lamp string faults.
I had a dead LHS flipper, checked it out, swapped from left to right, so the fault followed , the problem was with the flipper board!
Cool, do some more looking and see the the opto is hanging off the board, cracked.
So I get a new opto, match the e and e together from the opto to the flipper board, plug it in and as soon as I go to start a game, bang the flipper goes up, like the flipper board is shorted. Check everything 4 times, all good. Start to get very frustrated, so I remove the opto, and test, dead flipper again. So I thought f**k it, I will install the opto backwards, and surprise, surprise the flipper board now works perfectly. The flipper board was labeled incorrectly.....
So I have about 2 solid hours on the machine last night, then I smash the plunger link in half...
Anyway I get a plunger link from the local operator and have put another couple of hours on her tonight, all good.
Overall quite a quick flowing game and great theme.
Cheers Angelo
