Re: Sorcerer value...

As a fellow Sorcerer owner I'd recommend thinking hard about how much you may miss it once it's gone. ️️Sorcerer has stayed the longest in my collection and I'm not sure I could ever sell it. ️️It's getting harder and harder to find in decent shape and I'm hopeful they reproduce the Playfield soon w...

Re: FS Dark Knight Batman

I thought Dave M was Batman?
I've never played this game but it looks interesting and the price seems very fair based on others I've seen for sale.

Re: WPC-S flipper diode question (Fixed the matrix issue!)

So I figured out the problem. Gonna chalk this one up to my own stupidity. After going through Tullys recommendations with checking the board for AC I started following the wires and diodes like Chris recommended. Upon following one of the main culprit wires I came to a molex connection under the pl...

Re: WPC-S flipper diode question (now switch matrix question

Make sure you've got clean 12 volts coming from your driver board. Hook up your meter to the 12 V output in the lower left hand corner of the board ( J 116,17 or 18 pins 2 &3 ) Then switch the meter over to AC. If there's any AC voltage, that'll screw up your optos. I've seen more than once som...

Re: WPC-S flipper diode question

One more question about the switch matrix. What causes multiple switches to activate all at once in Switch Edge Test when I press a single switch? Getting a few of those as well. Sometimes it's 3 switches all at once in a single column. Sometimes it's only 2 switches in a single row. And if I have a...

Re: WPC-S flipper diode question

As far as the switch matrix goes, check the diodes on the switches in that row. If one is broken (or shorted) it will cause issues with the rest. Thanks Chris I went through what pinwiki suggested for determining its not a CPU issue (using test jumpers to test the pins in J207 and J209) so now I'll...

Re: WPC-S flipper diode question

Thanks for the insight Tully! Gonna solder a new diode on each coil. So weird that the previous person(s) snipped those diodes. Fired her up tonight and realized I still have a bit of work to do. No credit dots but LOTS of switch issues and two dead eddy sensor boards (one the pot does nothing when ...

WPC-S flipper diode question (Fixed the matrix issue!)

Hey guys Finishing up (finally!) the TOM I picked up a few months ago and I just noticed while rebuilding the flippers that the previous owner (or tech that helped maintain the game) cut the diode that connects the red wire lug to the center lug on both flipper coils. Anyone know why someone would d...
