Well more issues with this piece of crap  ^.^   Whatever happened with the displays Killed the new HV transistors and or the display so ive completely rebuilt the HV section with the Kit i had aside for Strikes and Spares.  (Just have to wait for the new kit for strikes).    So all fixed touch wood

Sometimes no matter how many hours you put into these games - they are 30 years old and can develop "new" problems completely at random. I usually leave them switched on all day for a few days, for this very reason !

you need to change the heading on this thread to "BALLY STAR TREK HAS DEPARTED - ITS CONTINUING MISSION, TO EXPLORE STRANGE GAMES ROOMS AND SEEK OUT A NEW GENERATION OF PINBALL PLAYERS. TO BOLDLY GO WHERE NO PINBALL HAS GONE BEFORE...

or somthing like that.
