    Nascar garage working "currently"

    My tech buddy wants me to inquire. So can a defective latch thats turning on the FET cause oscillating solenoid ( 8 bit latch htc273 )???

    Nascar garage working "currently"

    I couldn't find any IRL540N.... I called starburst and I ordered 2 of the suggested alternates. 40NF10L Mosfet BUK9529 N-CHA After reading the LOR repair log that I will have the flipper transistors checked/swapped at the same time. Just wondering which ones to put where now.....

    Nascar garage working "currently"

    I will probably just order both from elelsu in London. They will mail me the parts and I was going to build a 3a breaker for the testing as I only have 3 fuses left. Didn't see the link to read about it but maybe my tech buddy will know.

    Nascar garage working "currently"

    I am swapping out a transistor on my Stern Nascar. 22NE10L STP transistor When I was swapping out some TIP 122 on my Checkpoint it was suggested I use TIP 102 (pretty sure those were the numbers, its been a while) anyhow.... I usually swap the same component but I was wondering if there was a...

    Back again Nascar garage issue

    Once I figure out which transistor it is I will have to post to see if there is a "more robust' vwrsion I should use for this high use area. Otherwise no big deal. If I actually jad to pay someone for my board work I might be crying another tune. Get your son to play a few games of Checkpoint...

    Back again Nascar garage issue

    My tech thinks there maybe a suttle effect from this weak transistor sucking too much juice.

    Back again Nascar garage issue

    I had my fromer tech buddy from work look over the manual and he gave me a list of pages to make copies of so he can mark them up as he may want. Looks like I have a transistor going that powers the garage up/down. From the chart it makes sense as I was also having a minor issue with pit row not...

    Back again Nascar garage issue

    So I don't know why the up down switch is displayed in the 5th column from the left while all the other switches are in the 2nd column. I can tell you it crispy fried the fuse I put in (nice big black mark veey obviously cooked). I definitely have a short somewhere. Fifty memtioned the sheathing...

    Back again Nascar garage issue

    Unplugged it and tried again. This game the garage didn't move up down at all and it is playing around the garage. Still does the modes without opening. Well, off to work now...... Will not be overly suprised if the new fuse is blown as it is playing around the garage like when I started today...

    Back again Nascar garage issue

    Game starts fine. On the first hit to the garage it raises, doesn't stay up and keeps trying to raise around 5 times. Then it stops trying and plays around the garage. My first test game I actually got in the garage and it just kept going and going. I am starting to get better at foshing the...

    Back again Nascar garage issue

    I had a chance to do a little troubleshooting this morning. First I checked the up/down garage coil and it metered out fine. Then I swapped the wires on the garage side (holds up the garage switch) as it's the only thing I have replaced in the area. No luck and further the game did not 'play...

    Back again Nascar garage issue

    The game is just 'playing around' the garage issue this time. So it's not a show stopper. It happens with any machine. In the worst case I may have to send the garage out for a double check after installing the parts you are getting. Still have had plenty of non issue games. Not a lemon by any...

    Back again Nascar garage issue

    Garage is again not staying up when it is suppose to. Played with the glass off and lifted it and it still fell back down. All assembly parts appear to look good. Anyone out there with this machone post me a pick of the switch on the side that controls my up/down. It will be best to see a...

    Staging My Pinball Home For Sale

    Might be best to just remove them all to show all the available space. I am sure there has to be someone in the area that could yake them in for the short term. Any volunteers?
