* Diagnose fuse blowing problem | * <i class="fa fa-square-o"></i> Diagnose fuse blowing problem | ||
* | ** Likely culprit: bad solenoid on jet bumper (already disassembled - discoloured) | ||
* Replace all rubber bumpers | * <i class="fa fa-square-o"></i> Replace left flipper solenoid | ||
* Realign flippers | ** This is the cause of the left flipper sticking on the down-stroke, and the repeated blowing of at least one fuse. | ||
* Descale copper contacts | ** <i class="fa fa-check-square-o"></i> Order new solenoid | ||
* [Optional] Replace lights with LED equivalents/rewire motherboard to work with LEDs. | * <i class="fa fa-square-o"></i> Replace all rubber bumpers | ||
* Resolder top front speaker wires | ** <i class="fa fa-square-o"></i> Order new bumpers | ||
* Find replacement coin rejector | * <i class="fa fa-square-o"></i> Realign flippers | ||
** They keep getting out of alignment no matter how much they are tightened. Maybe threadlocker would help? | |||
* <i class="fa fa-square-o"></i> Descale copper contacts | |||
** Better current flow = better power from flippers | |||
** Ian did one in Feb 2016. | |||
** Consider replacing with a different type of switches | |||
* <i class="fa fa-square-o"></i> [Optional] Replace lights with LED equivalents/rewire motherboard to work with LEDs | |||
** Rutger wants to do this pretty much immediately (as of Feb 2016). | |||
** Frollard is not so optimistic, because the existing matrix depends on the incandescent bulbs' resistance, making LED replacement complicated and likely not at all power-saving. | |||
* <i class="fa fa-square-o"></i> Resolder top front speaker wires | |||
** Only internal speaker works; top disconnected | |||
* <i class="fa fa-square-o"></i> Find replacement coin rejector | |||
** Player 2 quarter slot rejector missing | |||
