Hi as per title to finish off a big restore.. firstly im in need of 2 of the DE pop bumper housing assemblies, cant seem to find a uk stock of these?? Secondly the flippers, slings and bumpers stay active in game over/tilt both with the ppb board plugged in and not, although the flippers go real weak with it unplugged.. anyone any idea what could cause this as its an xpin power board. Lastly does anyone know where i could buy the gold hologram scorpion target decals from or anyone here who could make a set?
Cheers, Andy
 
The flippers, bumpers and slingshots remaining active may be a problem with what's termed the 'Game On' logic* of the Cpu board, where instead of disabling these solenoids they're left active, with the flipper relay On.

* basically, a single line from the Cpu 'computer' side enables/disables a group of up to six solenoid drives (used for bumpers and slingshots) and the flipper relay.

I will bring you some pop bumper assemblies on Sunday. Data east blue. I can also bring you an original ppb that you can use for testing and buy if you want it for £60.

Paul thank you that would be amazing, its been a restore for a friend so let me ask them whether they want the spare board, iv no other data east games so the ppb wont be much use to me, let me know what we owe you for the bumper housings. They will be wanting it to go back on site for Easter so im keen to get it finished off and sent back before I head off to Texas.
