A small update on the backbox and some pics attached.
I stripped out the backbox and completely sprayed the interior. I removed and cleaned the backing aluminium with some nifty and gave it a light polish. All metal pieces were cleaned and new screws utilised. I decided to print new cards for the backbox as the originals were heavily browned due to age. I have retained these and will store them in plastic. I used some velcro spots to secure the new cards to the backbox and tried to use the same holes in the aluminium sheet backing when securing those sheets to reduce any additional blemishes there. I have polished the metal board straps and given the existing boards a good cleaning. I am awaiting the Solenoid Board and the MPU board from repair but no rush or need for those yet
I also removed the 6 digit score leds and brackets and gave each a good cleaning. They were full or grime and cleaned up quite well. I also printed new safety cards or these as there was only 1 in the machine when I received it and it was almost black from grime.
