2 fully disassembled, clean and re-stickerd drop target sets. my BIG GUNS left drop target bank is a little sticky. I'll get those cleaned but I dont want to have no pinball to play so it will have to wait.

I only have the 3 bank drop target installed right now because I found some more jerry rigged parts so I got to make another part order for coil stop brackets and another drop target reset plate. Im holding off on the order because I still have to figure out the flipper situation. I still have yet to post up the problem on pinside because Im doing little things here and there on it but the little things are almost all done.

Well I just had a brief chat with KRIS KUNTS aka PINBALL PIRATE he's a professional repairmen and he pointed me to a possibly bad BRIDGE RECTIFIER so I googled how to test a bridge rectifier got out my multi-meter and started testing....BINGO! right on the power board. So now I have to remove it from the board and take a trip to the electronics store.

This is why my flipper fuse blows at turn on.

Ok so before i took of the bridge rectifier i thought was the problem I wanted to re-test it to make sure, so I removed the board because I was getting a funky angle while testing. After removing the board it tested good so I began re-testing them all and I got a short signal on the flipper power board bridge rectifier.

So I took the board out and watched the youtube video again with DMM and board in hand everything but one way tested fine but one pair gave me tone signaling a short. Now remove it go to store get a new and re-install. (fingers crossed they have one in stock)

Wish my dad would give up his desire for a videoslot machine and get into Pinballs , this is his era of electronics and skill , he was a Sears service technician for 15 years and another 15 years in appliance repair.

Video slots and video poker are the CRACK of the gambling world, not calling your dad a crack head hell my dad is intimidated by anything newer than a NES controller except the TV remote Its just a cop-out I tell him pinball only has 2 buttons but hed rather sit in the garage watch TV and huff down a pack of smokes.

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

Thats why my pins are in the house the constant haze of smoke wouldn't be good for them.

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

Aaaaaaaand they didnt have them at the store but I found a couple other things I needed and I found it on a couple pinball part sight so thats good, just add that to the list.

 

[Metalzoic]

What store? You have an actual pinball parts store near you?

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

No! HSC...google it. Roenert Park CA. Turns out THIS part is pinball specific.
