Heard back from the guy. Apparently the machine is down by Atlantic City (despite being advertised in the Central Jersey craigslist), it's a bit far for me to just take a look at a non-working machine. I'd have no problems going down there if the machine worked, or checking it out if it was closer, ...

Williams Flash stuck on "Tilt"

Saw this for sale, I can get it for $300. Do the solid state machines have tilt sensors which can get stuck? I've also heard of caps in the tilt sensors going bad, but know nothing about them. If that's the case, can they just be disabled to get the machine playing until a replacement can be found?

Until I saw the deal I never even knew this place was there. Sounds pretty neat, 200 machines that you can play. I'm going to have to check it out.

Make sure that the ribbon is inserted with the right side up into the circuit board. I had it in upside down the first attempt.

Not sure off the top of my head, but I'd check that the LCD ribbon connector is inserted completely, with the correct side up, so that all the contacts are engaged correctly. Also double check that all other wires were reconnected. I think that the screen lights up white even when unconnected (it lo...

Tell me about it! Maybe stick it inside behind the hopper...

Sadly, I bet they just toss them all in the dumpster. Wish the dumpster was closer to my house, I'd be willing to do a bit of diving for Pachi parts...

I should note that this is for Sammy Pachislos. I can't confirm that the Rodeo machines are the same, although the process is likely similar (now if someone would like to donate a Rodeo machine for experimentation...)

Reconnecting Trademark LCD screen tutorial

It seems that Trademark Poker is simply disconnecting the LCD screens in several of their "rebranded" machines. The following should assist you in reconnecting them. Attempting any of this should be done entirely at your own risk. Please ensure that your machine is turned off and unplugged...
