I Saw this on Marketplace Facebook,luckily it was local to me and the guy wanted it gone asap,had owned it 10 years in a mancave, so nabbed it for the pricey sum of £25! (Found £5 in it too!) Fully working,no battery leaks.Nice little bargain. The only downside is the glass isn't brilliant but for that price a steal!

you are dealing with mains voltage here, better to use a connector terminal block IMO just don't try and short circuit the national grid! your come off worse!

been on it today.Fitted new locks,the new lamp mask fitted,i had to fix one at front as it had broken where screws fit,so i made 2 u shape brackets from alloy and glued them on,then drilled for screws.Reels fitted,coin mech cleaned and 5p 10p painted red.Payout mech cleaned and lubricated.New lamp starters and clean inside .Note the variator in its own box,superb mech with a diff gear,looks like it would drive a car.So now its a clean on the outside and ready to use

Sorted,ive repaired the switch lense and used a 12 volt 2.2 watt.works fine

hello and welcome

fantastic Vectra. Looks fantastic. looking forward to playing it. Back in the day i remember an arcade with a few silver ghosts and a golden steppa. always plaYed. Thanks for the release.

nice one that a bargain

no worries!!

Going to use an Imo terminal block what ever on of those are lol

I wouldn’t solder anything high voltage with lead free solder @Ben Moore

yeah 6.3vac in a lot of older electromechanicals.

so now the minor track repairs are are done, and for good measure the zener diodes have also been removed to be replaced seeing as Bob got those! so while the solder resist is drying I typed this up!

E30M11J01 arrow or elite series discontinued in 2012, best bet buy another psu off ebay with one in http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1647991.pdf

Keep up the good work Bob. It's the same for all of us learning to fix boards. Lots of work...slow progress. I sometimes get on better if I leave it for a few days and think about it and come back to it. I had an impact cpu laughing at me earlier when I gave it it's first try
