Whats not working on it??

[dianeknell 10]

the flippers and the circuit inside that the ball bounces off, everything else works ok

Can ypou take the glass off yourself???

If you can lift the playfield and check the bank of relays on the bottom of the machine.....they should be labled with there function.....find the fliiper one and check its plugged in properly...also check the wiring loom that links the to the translight unit(the top scoreboard bit) make sur all the plugs are in corrctly.

If it's been in storage chances are its been moved badly or knocked so will prob be a loose connection causing your probs.

do the above with the plug removed from the socket!

Old machines use lots of relays and they get stuck often.

I have family over this week but could possibly take a good look at it next week.

First do wat carlton says.

DO NOT under ANY circumstances use wd40 or anything like it on your pinball!!!

I've used them for other things and been pleased with the service.
