Bally Dixieland (1967)
« on: October 06, 2008, 02:37:31 PM »
Hey guys...

I'm after a schematic for an EM Bally Dixieland. Also a manual if available.

Hope someone can help...

Regards, Owen.

It is a really nice looking pin. This is another one that I am doing for a customer, but at least this time he has re-stencilled the artwork, and cleaned up the playfield... looks good what he's done.

I've just gotta get it to work!

I haven't really looked at it yet... about to go deliver the Lightning Ball, so then I will have the space to work on the Dixieland.

But basically, the customer has tried to repair it himself. He tells me he's cleaned up all the contacts and gone through everything (whatever that means  %$%).

I have no coin door for it, and at the moment it just has the typical motor spinning symptom. Later this week I will get stuck into it, but I was hoping to get the schematic at least, to make it a bit easier to repair... If not, I'll still get it going, just takes a bit longer when you are flying blind!

There's the alarm bell !!

In other words - It might have had a small problem that has now turned into a bigger one.

Yep, I think you guy's are right! We'll see... without the coin door, I've gotta work out which wires are coin and credit and slam tilt... but really, I just gotta start from scratch... This should be fun!  :D

OK, so no-one has the schematics for this pinball?

Marco Specialities does have the schematic and manual, but their shipping is HUGE for some sheets of paper!

Looks like I'd better get together parts order to make the shipping worthwhile...

Would go with PBR for the copy of the manual and schematic
