This one was a Dave Astill NVRAM. I assume top of the line, never had an issue with any of his stuff. I had another person do the socket soldering (because it was so small) and they created problems on more than of these CPU boards. I had to do extensive work to repair, clean, meter and install...

Recently did an NVRAM install on a Williams Getaway Machine. It was playing playing great, still plays great, but recently one little nagging issue has popped up. The game will randomly completely lock-up mid game. No reset, DMD goes black, sound stops, lights stop, everything stops, but game...

I'll check it out. Thanks. Watched a number of you tube videos on the weekend. I think I can get this adjusted. Glenn

Below is a picture. My understanding is the latch mechanism releases when the lower electromagnet is energized. When that latch releases, the return spring (in picture) should pull the plastic plate into the lock position (I think). It does not do that freely now. Should the upper electromagnet...

Looking for tips on adjusting an AX relay on a Gottlieb Royal Flush. I'm new to repairing EM's but really enjoying the process. With the game off - I believe when I manually release the lower latch, the plastic switch actuator should to return to position. Having trouble getting it to spring...

Also, I can send higher res photos if you need them.

TAF Decals. Minor damage can be seen in the 1st picture. Likely will be trimmed off when installed. PM me with an offer if you are interested.

I have some stickers shown below. I also have a full set of cabinet decals, new sandblasted side rails, and olds spare legs and old lock down bar. When I was restoring my TAF, the idea was to go black powder coat on all the chrome. I know a local powder coat shop and could get everything coated...

Shoot me a PM, I'll go through my TAF Parts tonight (recently sold the machine) I do have some sandblast and uncoated side rails, as well as fuse list insert, Williams WPC stickers, Insert decals, and a few other items if interested. Lots of people swap out the fliptronic 2 boards, so you may...

If I didn't have a kid that is so hell bent on a Pokemon machine, I would have been all over this. Someone is getting a deal.

Foo Fighters is the best game I have ever owned. Tons of staying power, tough to beat. New owner should install expression lights, they look great in this game! I bought mine new in box. I paid $14,452 (incl. tax). Someone is going to get a good deal on this.

Transformers are easy to swap if the rust bothers you. I would check the voltages being put out by the transformer, if the voltages are fine I would not worry too much about it. This is common if a machine was stored in a non-climate controlled location (unheated garage, backyard shed, etc)...

I love this game. Great theme. It should sell at the price. GLWTS. If my kid wasn't such a die hard Pokemon fan I would have bought this by now.

Congrats on the sale!

Game is new enough, best bet is call Stern. They are typically very helpful over the phone. I don't own the game or know the mechanism well enough to comment, but check out page 59 of the manual online. May be a loose set screw, could be more involved...
