If you give up on it sell it to someone who wants to fix it up. It must be saved! (it is possible but don't rush it, it needs lots of work, Care and Love!)   %$%

I've emailed the installation procedures and game operation instructions. Scanning the schematics is a little difficult given the size of them.
Anyone got any advice on the best way to scan schematics when all you have is an A4 scanner?
Wanted: GTB Aquarius backglass. Any playfield bits and backglasses from any EMs - nothing is junk to me.

I've tried scanning schematics so long as it's lined up level with the edge of the scanner theyshould be right but the slightest angle and nothing lines up

Any pin can be salvaged, it just becomes a matter of whether you have the skills or finances.

It might not be cost effective. That isn't always the determining factor, though!
