Please alle me to introduce mezelf. I have no stealth, but do have some taste. Especially in eighties and early nineties fruitmachines and pinnballmachines. Nu name is Mischa Neuteboom, a single father of a 14year old angel named Angel. We live in Amsterdam and what used to be a bad habbit, playing fruitmachines while smoking and drinking, has turned into a fun hobby, in which my daughter is also becoming an enthousiastic player. I was directed to this platform for lovers of fruitmachines by a friend, who runs a simular Facebookpage. In the Netherlands we mostly have JPM, Barcrest and Bellfruitmachines. However these models are different than the ones in the UK though. At home I have a Blackjack by Barcrest which is played almost daily. Last week I thought I had found myself a jewel. A Project Coin Machines Ltd. called Chico the Bandit. The cabinet is near mint and the owner told me it was running well and we made a deal. As I arrived to pick it up, he told me that for the first time it would not start and ensured me it must be a fuse only. I took it home, took it upstairs and had a closer look. The batteryleakage was there. That was a great disappointment, especially when the people on the Dutch platform told me not to keep hopes up trying to find another PC-92-108-003 MpU board. But, your moderator does have good hopes I will find what I am looking for here 😀.. So if you have read this boring introduction and are able to help me please do. Best regards , Mischa Neuteboom.

@midibob, Taken this motor apart will not destroy the magnetic gauge. Though careful with that ferrite core. A for example a loudspeaker magnet indeed don't take that magnet apart it has a magnetic short plate and indeed if that is the case it will lose some magnetic gauge. Can take it of the chassis but leave magnetic complete. So if you find a situation where the magnet it self is a construction of ferrite and metal plate(s) don't ever take those apart. @riche100 , Yeh if I had a couple of motor's .... But this is quite an easy job, just took one hour and that is including figuring out the problem, how to dismantle the motor and looking for a washer in a pile of screws,nuts,bolts,metal things box.....

Well joe,im hoping a nice machine plenty of pics will follow the project

Not sure on that.Im thinking some audio was created for machine and maybe some taken from the program on tv.It will cost more than its worth currently to restore but i have had this before and regretted selling it,so whatever im saving it,and its in a sorry state
