Another update.
Looks like slow progress but had a few hurdles to get over and it’s done properly or not at all -
Main switch broke during removal so thanks to Vimtoman for helping source a new one, 3 in fact for £8 delivered from Amazon.
Cleaned and sprayed switch box, fitted new main switch and rewired and added a power cable connected to the switched live to power the new 12v 5a PSU which will power my lighting mods.
Fitted the new PSU, mains cable and socket hood, both flipper boards after resoldering some fuse sockets.
Cleaned the flipper board covers and fitted.
Fittted the flipper leaf switches and blue led flipper buttons which are powered by the new PSU.
Plugged machine transformer in and turned machine on to test machine transformer after painting and the 12v PSU, flipper button leds work.
Added a 2nd feed from 12v PSU which will be a cable going inside the trunking to the playfield to supply power to the trough led, shooter lane led, shark led, float led and the instruction card led plates, which means I can raise playfield without trailing cables or disconnecting anything.
Fitted missing pcb mounting screws to backbox.
Sprayed backbox speaker panel receiver channel (metal) and fitted.
Fitted backbox hinges and remaining hardware.
Fitted backbox to Cabinet with both halves of roto-lock cleaned and fitted.
Fitted new powder coated backbox hinges and bolts, new washers, sourced a new hinge bush which was missing from the machine.
Backbox now rock solid and no movement at all, as it used to rock back and forth.
It’s also straight !
Just a few bits to do and cabinet complete then on to finish the playfield
