In Progress Aerosmith

[Alpha1]

I picked this up yesterday....

I've had a good lock at it and collared a list of parts needed which I'll update in a bit but this is the a different sort project I haven't tried before.

Has the machine caught fire, or just been next to something else on fire?

Next to something

 

[Davey D]

Looking forward to see your progress on this

Apparently quite a rare game in the UK so worth doing

 

[Kel86]

Looking forward to seeing how you get on with this. I'd love an Aerosmith

So the only bit of dodgy wiring is right at the top.

The previous owner must have put that on top of the pin.

Looks like the cage around the motherboard will have helped a little with the heat. Out of all my Spike 2 games Aerosmith is the only one fitted with this cage. If you need any details of what colour wire goes where, then i can get some pics of mine for you

It will just be a fuse

Have a look inside the cage if anything has dripped onto it and remove asap, this stuff can be quite corrosive. Looks eminently doable otherwise. What burned next to it?

So still waiting for a reply from Stern on the parts, notable the wooden backbox bits.

But this is what I think the BOM is.

Are main cabinet decals bad? Looks okay from top pic?

They are OK other than one bit that has lifted, so thought I would just do the lot.

Yeah, was thinking about maybe using the premium decals but nowhere has the complete set.
