Pinball machine repair/refurbish

To do

Functional

  • Diagnose fuse blowing problem. Likely culprit: bad solenoid on jet bumper (already disassembled - discoloured)
  • Replace all rubber bumpers
  • Realign flippers
  • Descale copper contacts. Better current flow = better power from flippers
  • [Optional] Replace lights with LED equivalents/rewire motherboard to work with LEDs.
  • Resolder top front speaker wires. Only internal speaker works; top disconnected
  • Find replacement coin rejector. Player 2 quarter slot rejector missing

Formal

  • Redo exterior paint job, replace decals on side (repaint? vinyl decal?)
    • image original artwork
    • sand down to wood
    • prime and seal
    • reapply artwork
