Thank you so much. I picked up a 1975 Spin out machine and your videos have been very helpfull. I really appreciate the time you all have taken to teach us and make us more knowledgeable. This is my first machine and I had no clue but im slowly figuring out thanks to you!!!
Buckaroo is one of my favorites. Illinois is our neighbor state. We go there to the pinball expo every year. If you're ever over this way I'll buy guys a 🍺.
Excellent info here. I'm currently working on a Midway Gangbusters, a shooting game that's part EM and part solid state. TONS of relays in this monstrosity so knowing how to approach them is crucial! Hopefully they won't be too hard to remove or find replacements for.
Was told to check out ya channel by that bloke over in South Carolina 😁..was in Australia about 17 years ago with my wife,stayed in a backpackers in downtown Sydney..from there we got a day tripper pass on the bus, train and ferry to check out Parramatta, Newcastle, Manly Beach(which was like Baywatch people with bikinis lol), checked out the Sydney Opera house, ended up in Bathurst where I have an uncle who lives about 5mins from Mt Panarama who took us around the track in his car..checked out the zoo in Dubbo and spent the last night at my cousins place in Balmain before flying back home..two weeks went very fast

What do you mean by snowshoe switch because you mentioned it and other videos about a snowshoe that is being used as part of the switch to select in the stepper motors in pinball machines
With a switch that has multiple A & B (some are open some are closed) how do we know which ones are the default open ones and default closed? I am thinking of the score motor and AX BX switches which I find confusing. I saw your videos on those subjects but still not clear on which switches to adjust as default open or closed. Thanks again team!
The schematic will always indicate weather a switch is normally open or closed. However if you look at a relay the position of the long blade in the comb or ladder of the armature determines it. So if the long blade is closest to the front of the relay it's a normally open switch but the opposite if the long blade is closest to the coil. Have a look and you'll see!
Thanks! If you get a chance, add a short video showing this. You guys are super helpful!
Thanks so much for your super thanks it's very much appreciated.

Thank you for the informative video gentlemen. Im working on a buckaroo and your videos are helpful.
From a small town in Indiana 🇺🇸
Our pleasure! Glad you find them useful when I was in the USA last year I fixed a Buckaroo for him in Illinois.

@arcadesurvival8469 hopefully be back for 40th Expo next year
Great video, thanks so much for taking the time. Reading this stuff helps, but visual with explanation makes it very clear.
Thanks so glad you found it useful 👍🏻

So glad you found it useful.
You guys are great thank you for the helpful hints

@@naytch2003 ah ok you should consider Facebook there are a lot of great pinball help groups on there.
That Form AA switch I always call a smash switch :)
A good example.
A good example
Well not heard that one before but like the nought to nine unit lol 😆
Yodelayheehoo
Don't smash the switch people come on now

We refer the the contact pin on a stepper unit as a snow shoe its not the correct nMe but widely used.
@@goatshedempinballrepair8545 but the contract pin doesn't even look like a snowshoe so that is confusing
@@waynegram8907 well lots of people call them that 🙄
@@goatshedempinballrepair8545 oh ok thanks I didn't know they did

What's the difference between a form C and a form AA? Both look like they are either up or down to make contact with the upper lead or the lower lead.
We did a video on this explanation its called relays and coils
