Room 34 Posted November 4, 2002 Share Posted November 4, 2002 I have a pinball machine (Taxi by Williams, 1988) that, mechanically, works great, but has some circuit board problems. Basically, when I got it, I wasn't aware that someone had installed all the wrong fuses in it (most of them were 7 amp slo-blo, even though lots of ths circuits required fuses with a much lower rating). Before long, resistors started frying, and now most of the score display and sounds don't work. I have replaced all of the fuses, and the game is still playable, but it is much less fun without all of the display and sounds working. I have tried contacting various places in Atlanta that claim to do pinball board repair, but I can't get them to reply to my e-mails. I've heard about a place in Texas that sounds good, called Two Bits, but I am a little nervous about packing up my boards and shipping them off to Texas. Has anyone dealt with Two Bits before and can verify their reliability? Or do you know of anyone else I should trust (preferrably in Atlanta or elsewhere nearby)? Thanks!

It is great to know that I might be able to find a good place locally to get this work done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
