Repairing a 1980 Bally XENON Pinball Machine - Fixing All The Beautiful Lights And LED's

ladies and gentlemen this is joe's classic video games back with another cool pinball repair video for you this evening look at this beautiful machine we have here this is bali xenon what a special game our buddy frank brought this by wants us to work on it a little bit he was emailing he said that the sound fades in and out the top out hole is a little sticky the left side lights are a little messed up the o and n xenon lights it's doing weird scoring sometimes and maybe the right targets are messed up but other than that frank's got it working perfect so basically it's it's running but it needs a little bit of work so we're going to work through it a little bit and see what we can figure out now this particular cabinet is in pretty good shape what this was when they were doing really cool art too it's it's still stenciled but it's just the the stencils are more complex there's more going on looks fantastic it's awesome there's a little bracket here i don't know if those are original somebody may have added that let's see if there's one on the other side there is so maybe that's original i don't know so that's also very nice now this is serial number exe5602 it appears to me now let's see if she matches yes yes usually they don't not match um beautiful mirrored back glass let's turn off the lights so you can see it but it appears to be in perfect shape so our buddy frank has done a lot of work on this one it's had an overlay put on it that looks really nice looks like they did a pretty good job on it but i can still tell i can tell i know where to look you look right there see a little line around it but very good job there's a lot of work to putting an overlay on you have to uh you probably i don't know if you did on this one but usually you have to kind of sand the artwork off and everything else it takes a little while and then here there's always a transition to the shooter lane really you can't really that's kind of one of the ways to do it so it's had an overlay on it now normally you know we touch up paint on things and stuff like that but a game like xenon it's really hard to do that because they get a lot of wear first of all was played a lot second it had a bunch of inserts so if you look at all of these little inserts in the play field all of those when the ball hits it could chip the paint up around the insert and you just get these huge worn spots on the play field and it's a fairly intricate design that would be really hard to touch up so this is one of those games on a lot of games i don't really i'm not really all that into putting a uh overlay on them and it by the way that takes a lot of time to put one on uh but on a game like this you kind of have to put an overlay on it or put a new play field in it if it's if you've got minor wear you can touch it up but it's significant look at that look at the um look at the detail and all of that okay and then i've got a williams space odyssey over here now this is space odyssey wasn't it 1970 uh what's it say let's see what it says doesn't say this wasn't too long before that but you can see that the the artwork is much simpler so it's a lot easier to touch up if you were going to repaint it okay so it's got an overlay on it looks great cool game it's got that light blue thing now we got to talk about leds too you know i'm not a fan of leds but with that said you know i have put leds in some games i had a uh a uh uh got lib uh which was was it bad girls or something i can't remember i had a godly 80s game that just had this cool look to it and i put leds i put pink leds in part of it because it just fit the theme right so this one xenon it's supposed to be futuristic and it's there's a lot of white on it you know and uh it already had the uh what weren't there leds on the tube already anyway you know so with that said i don't really have a problem with somebody putting leds on this one it really fits it i just don't like whenever you take an old one like space odyssey here you know it's old you put leds in it just don't look right that's my opinion look at this bad baby over here little got the banker ball we've been working on original real light bulbs none of those none of those fake led light bulbs i just don't think they would look right on that but on xenon i can see why you put leds on it um so we'll see how that goes okay so i'm going to open it up and uh we'll we'll i like to check out what's going on inside of it first uh just to make sure nothing got jounced boy that's a great word jounced nothing got jounced out of place in shipping uh whenever he brought it to us now i've been i've been getting on joey joe when people drop off these games here's what i want you to do i want you to take a piece of paper and write down what's wrong with it like what they want us to fix and then and what we need to repair and put it in the machine and then that way whenever i go to fix them because sometimes somebody will drop one off and we've got a backlog so it's a month before i even look at it right so so i need a piece of paper or something to tell me what's wrong with it because even if you tell me i'm just going to forget so i need we need to start writing down what's wrong with these things so let's see if he put a [Music] oh come on oh good well technically he wrote down i guess we'll figure it out okay so uh like i said he's been working on it it's got a new power supply golf pinball power supply board i've used those before they work just well it's got a new power supply so that means you know not likely to have any problems actually on the power supply although we may have some stuff that blows fuses or something now with that said it looks like all the coils have been replaced both flipper coils both of the kickers there's the drop target resets i see the out hole coil back there the three pop bumpers and there's a uh saucer over here so all of the coils are brand new so we're not going to have any coil problems might have some wiring problems or something oh look they didn't do one the the extra flipper [Laughter] smart move if you're gonna if you're gonna say one that's probably the one to see okay so nothing's plugged in i think they brought it in two pieces so we've gotta plug in the stuff in the head but what i'll do is uh um let me see if i can clean some of this stuff up a little bit and uh we'll then we'll open the back box and thread all those wires up through there and see what the uh see what the top looks like okay folks we vacuumed it up let's see what it looks like in the back box look at this piece of work here similar to what they did on uh space invaders with the chasing lights and stuff okay so oh we got a combination of leds and uh incandescents it's got the original style display still okay so it's got a reproduction uh auxiliary lamp board which is used to do the chase lights around the uh the back glass he may have replaced that so that he could put leds in because i think they flicker if you don't replace that lamp board i believe but i may be wrong about that it's got the original uh the regular lamp board for the rest of the lights it's got a sounds plus original sound board looks like it's been recapped so someone's been working through that it has new eproms and then it has the vocalizer so if you don't know xenon was the first well i don't know that it was the first it was it has like a a synthesized female voice in it but it's a it's actually a recording of a uh musician at the time this this lady was a uh i guess she still is probably but she was into like uh i don't want to say what kind of music is i'm sure as you're born i'll say the right the wrong kind and infuriate everybody but there was a woman she was making kind of uh fresh music and so they recorded her to be the voice of xenon so this is a very interesting little game okay that is an original style driver board solenoid driver board looks great we'll uh we may have to work on that a little bit but it's also been recapped and then here is an original style mpu notice it says playboy on it that's not what they're calling frank it's just this used to be in a playboy at one point but it has xenon [Music] um eproms on it they were all the same board pretty much and then down here at the bottom the battery has been replaced by i suppose that's a capacitor i don't know or there may be batteries in there i haven't seen one like that so it actually has the original boards the only one that has been replaced is the auxiliary lamp board and it appears on the play field this led chaser board has been replaced and the power supply has been replaced but all the other ones are original but they've all been it looks like worked and touched up so very cool nice clean little game now when i say clean i don't mean it doesn't have dirt on it i mean no one's hacked it up or put the wrong crap in it you know yeah this is out of a playboy but it's the exact same board as the one that was in the xenon um yeah everything looks real clean and cool all right so i'm going to pull the wires up from the bottom and see if i can plug them all in where they go and see what we run into okay folks i've plugged it all back in so there's this little two wire plug here that's going to be for the speaker and then there's a big connector here um there were three connectors on the solenoid board two switch connectors on the mpu two lamp connectors on the lamp board and then a connector running over here doing who knows what so we got all those plugged in let's try turning it on and see what happens now there is an led right here that will tell you the status of your machine the thing blinks real quick real quick flash and then it does seven full flashes so it kind of looks like eight flashes but the first one is just the reset flash so they don't really count that because it doesn't really tell you all that much so we're gonna see if we get eight flashes and if it boots up if we do it'll probably play a little tune or something and it'll all start doing its thing one one two three four five six seven [Music] oh oh oh something's ripping okay so you hear the boom that's this that's no big deal so basically this thing is designed so that whenever the coin door um whatever that pulls in if the game is off that is open and it makes a bar go in between where all the coins fall so if you drop your quarter in it'll come back out the front so they did that just so that whenever you put your money in while the game's turned off you get your quarterback wasn't that nice of them now these years later they hum all the time because they're on the entire time that the game is playing we're having some sound some sound issues like you mentioned okay so let's i'll show you some other things that i noticed notice how the lights are so flickery i don't know if the camera will pick it up because it's like it's like um 60 frames a second or whatever but the flicker might be quicker than that some of that is because some of those are going to be leds i think some leds just they just flicker a little bit sometimes though it's a kind of cool look like it don't really look that bad on that i think it looks kind of cool and the problem with incandescence is if they're not in there well sometimes they'll get like real dim and cut off and back on and all that so i mean they all have their their pros and their cons so some of these at least are incandescent like those are and you can see on the coin door he's replaced one of them with a led uh that's white so there's different colored temperatures you know like the original ones are warm and whenever you're looking at them next to something else they look yellow or orange you know she's trying to talk but it ain't happening we're gonna fix her though we're coming honey hold on all right but they make leds that are warm too they call them warm it just depends on the kelvin scale i believe it's called that's all good no problem now look at this i gotta turn off the lights to give you the whole effect let me show you why people like this game look at that thing now the the backboard isn't lined up with it because of the um we have it open right now and also it looks like the displays are flickering they're not here in person that's just the camera's refresh rate but what a fantastic looking game let's look at all the lights and see if they're all working this is everybody's favorite game to look for lights right so the bottom lights are all lighting up the left ones are all lighting up the right ones are all lighting up she's trying to talk to us and the top ones are all lighting up okay so all of the lights in the frame are working great and like i was saying they look damn good with leds on this thing it'll be interesting to see if any of the ones under the play footer leds i didn't look earlier you also have this tube here that does this kind of chase pattern very cool so it looks fantastic all right so let me look over the notes again and see uh see what we're supposed to be fixing here okay so frank mentioned the left side lights which those look like you're coming on maybe he's talking about the ones over here we can go in the light test and figure that out and then he said the o and the n and xenon down here so we can figure all that out all right so let's go into in the lamp test now on valleys if you press this test button it will take you into test and the first one is the lamp test so see how that was flickering i bet that's an led we'll see if i'm right or not so we got a few of them out oh and n winlet winlet 4x xxx or actually just xx that's not a lamp um and then this one here it actually lights at a certain time because that's like a multi-ball thing um this one may just be burnt out or something yeah it's just burnt um [Music] there may be one under here maybe okay so i'm gonna make a little list of the ones that aren't working and then we're gonna try replacing the bulbs and then uh if that's not it we'll track it down okay so i uh the ones that were incandescent i just went ahead and replaced with other incandescent ones a little better um but some of them are led so on the back glass there is a ring where you can actually see some of the bulbs and so he's put leds in those but one of them was was an incandescent so i tried putting so this one was just working so that bulb will not work now why is that it must be the wrong kind of bulb but the the lights that are always on are ran off ac voltage i believe and the lights that are controlled or run off dc voltage so this led will work in a well that doesn't make any sense though because those are blinkers just like these are blinkers i don't know folks but what i'm going to do is i'm going to look under the play field see if he's got any other leds i can maybe rob one uh to put back here he was one short i may have some in the back actually yeah let me go see if i've got one real quick all right so i had one in the back so the uh the blinking ones are leds in the ring that you'll be able to see and the other ones are all incandescents kind of like he had it so [Music] they're all working so none of the um none of the lights in the back glass are out although there were a couple that were off what a cool looking game you see the blue one that's in her belt or her backpack whatever and you can see that you can see the that's the one i i contributed right there uh so there's a mixture of warm and cool on a busy back glass where there's a lot going on you can do that and nobody could really even i mean it looks good like that okay so uh let's pop up the play field and look at the ones flashing from the bottom of the play field and see if any of them are problem jobs or if they just need replaced all of those just needed to replace okay so the first one's the flash dance one i don't know why i don't know if i believe i was always told that you had to put a certain type in here i don't think turning these around will help because it's just a bay in that one but we'll try it i was always told you had to put a certain type of valleys or they do crap like this so it doesn't like that one we're going to take that one out okay yeah so there's a mixture of leds and regular bulbs so he's got green leds up here boy they look pretty good that's just a regular one there's a nice blue led red i think some of these are just burnt out yeah that one's that one's missing but inside of the game he had this bag so he's been working on sockets and stuff so we'll figure it out we're gonna figure it out frank don't worry about it buddy um okay so let me uh go through and replace the ones that that aren't working just to make sure it's not the bulb and then we'll go from there okay folks i believe i've got all of them there's two that aren't working i'll show you but uh the ones on the left that he had mentioned were just ones that were really hard to change because they're underneath a ramp and a bunch of stuff but i was able to swap them okay and then i swapped the two leds i put a new led on that one because it was like a warm so that it would match the arrow over there that one i just swapped with a one i had and it looks nice and clean now and isn't doing the stuttering thing i think some of them work with ac and some of them work with dc and it just depends on what you're doing so the only two that don't appear to be working are these two here in the wheel that he was talking about and he's replaced both of those sockets and that didn't fix it so i think there's gonna be something on the board or a connection problem or something so we'll figure that out next let me lay this down and uh we'll make sure that everything looks like it's working from the top okay it appears that all of them are working got the ones over here lighting up now there was one right here underneath that plastic that wasn't in there and a few of the bulbs that were under there were broke um maybe they got smashed when one of the coils was being moved or pulled out or something i don't know and you see that one's not flickering anymore that's good so we've got these two down here the o and the n which are two of the worst ones they're literally the closest ones to the player pretty much except for that one uh but we should be able to fix that it's gonna be something on the lamp board um oh and i was going to mention most of that was just changing actually changing light bulbs but i think the main reason that the game's here is because of the sound so he's just having us do that while we have it all open okay uh so let me pull out the lamp board and we'll look at it on the bench and see if we can track down that oh and that in problem okay folks so here is the lamp driver board pulled it out now this is very easy to do if you've only got a couple lights out sure as you're born it's going to be either connection over here or connect or the a bad scr silicon silicone controlled rectifier um so the first thing that you want to do is re-solder these connectors someone has beat me to the punch right i've already done it and they did a pretty good job because all the light bulbs except two of them are working now there have been some replaced you can see fresh solder on some of these and then also on the front you can see that like this one doesn't match okay so i went into the manual by the way if you're looking for a copy of manuals you can get them from the pinball resource get copies of them or some of them some of the bali ones are available on the internet for free things like that but you might want a hard copy right um so i looked in the manual and one of the lights is controlled by q8 and one of the lights is controlled by q51 so this is q8 this is q1 this is q15 now the lucky thing about all these is you don't even have to know how they work really all you need to know is it's some kind of transistor right you test it like a transistor which you basically test like a diode so you're going to use our diode check on our trusty fluke multimeter um and we're just going to compare the reading that we get on this one between the legs to this one between the legs all right so i'll show you what i mean so if i put my red lead on the left pin my black lead on the center pin my reading is nothing if i go left or right we get .421 okay let's see if this one does the same it's easy as this people nothing and one point two well that's not point four okay so let's try q15 this one see what it does so these two test different but we don't know which one's wrong we got a good suspicion but we don't know for sure let's check q15 nothing and 1.2 so this one tests the same as this one this is the odd manner i'll do it again on this one but now we have three of them to test the same but this one test different that's the extent of the knowledge you need to test the things you don't need to know what they're doing you don't need to know what the measurement should be if you know that that is great that's wonderful but you don't have to know it right so basically it's a diode test which means power can go this way but it can't go that way so i've been told that i'm wrong that the power actually goes from this side to this side whatever folks positive and negative the power goes between the two probes and it'll only go one way so if you if you reverse the probes basically it's measuring it's measuring the flow of voltage through the thing and you can get three groups of readings if you get below about 0.4 oh and by the way notice we tested it in circuit we didn't remove it or anything now we've got it unplugged from the lamp and all of that right because it's out of the game but we're just so can you test them in circuit well however this is in circuit this is in circuit so we're just comparing like things it doesn't really matter for a circuit sometimes you'll you'll get a weird measurement one way or the other because it's in circuit and you're you're basically testing across a resistor that's in parallel or something like that right but for this this is a very simple circuit and there's multiples of them you know and whenever i test that when it tests different than the other ones i got to think that thing's bad because it tells me in the book that's the one that turns on one of the lights that doesn't work so that's our first suspect whatever i'm messing with i do that i just bend it down out of the way and then that way you don't get you don't lose it like sometimes i'm going through and testing all of them and i'll bend the ones that are all that i think are bad then we can go back and check them so there's that one the other one is q51 q51 is a completely different type and it's right here okay so how we're going to test it we're going to do the same freaking thing okay let's see my probe up here now this may not be the best way to test them but it works so we'll keep doing it now if you were very knowledgeable about what these scrs are doing and how they're wired and all of that you would know exactly which two legs we should check because you would understand what the base the collector the emitter all of that is and why it's doing it and where it needs to go and all of that but you don't necessarily need to know it whenever you've got 50 of them you just check them against each other so i'm getting 1.2 between left and middle and open between the other ones so let's try this one right behind it here also 1.2 and open between those two okay so let's try reversing them and just see if we get anything different if we do it this way because i don't know like i said i don't know which one's the base so it's telling me 2.0 open and then there's also some you know there's a couple other ones i haven't done yet but this one is 0.7 and open so these two test different okay so let's slide down to this one 0.7 and open so this one and this one test the same this one tests different let's try one of these all the same i'm just doing those because they maybe they're connected to the same output of different chips or something in the same position so this one point six and open okay so so i'm getting 0.6 on this but on these i'm getting 0.7 so is that significant no it isn't there's three groups of readings you can get you can get below about 0.4 which depending on how it's wired may mean that it's shorted if you're getting zero it's shorted so if you're getting that it's shorted whatever you're connecting whatever you're touching is connected together right so if you're below 0.4 depending on how far below 0.4 you got a chance that you're shorted the voltage drop on a diode is usually between 0.4 and 0.7 right now these aren't diodes but you get my point the voltage drop of the gate can we call it a gate these videos are frustrating because i don't know all the terminology and to be honest i don't really want to even know all the terminology because it works real good for me but i'm trying to explain it to people and this isn't something that i'm knowledgeable in it but i'm not uh i don't have the right terminology so i know that really upsets a lot of people but it is what it is okay so uh uh so point four and below is probably a short between point four and point seven or so is a voltage drop so basically although that one says 0.591 and this one says 0.692 they're both testing the same because that's in the same general um area you're not looking for exact numbers on this you're just looking to is the voltage drop happening right and then the other thing that you can get is if it's really high like that that basically means there's no connection there so the the voltage drop that's supposed to happen between those two pins isn't happening so this chip's bad as well which we kind of already knew because that's the two that were our lights right so why did we check the pins we didn't i mean that we did just for the hell of it there's only three pins just check it this way just check it this way you're just trying to find if that one's different it's all you need to do simple simple simple now look at this this one here let's check it while we're at it that's a big crazy one now that light is working now look we're getting 0.589 and we're getting open but look at what they did they mounted it and twisted the legs because the base collector emitter is different on that so whoever did that really took their time or either had it memorized or looked up the data sheet and knew exactly that that would be a perfect substitution for that little scr and made it happen so when you see stuff like that on a board i would not consider that a hack that is uh a proper replacement it's just the legs you know the uh the pin out was different so they made it work that's probably a better part than the other ones this probably can take a higher amperage or something now you could run into the problem though where some of the other variables aren't right so it could be that like the light turns on slower because of that because it's not as fast or something or you know all kinds of crap so you want to use the same parts if you can so it's a 2n 5060 is the ones that are on the board look at that how do y'all like that new camera look at that 2nd 50 60. so we're going to replace those there are one there that's bent over so we don't lose track of it and then these over here let's see if they're similarly labeled too far people we're supposed to be having fun okay if if you don't find this stuff fun look down there on the bottom 77-13 that thing you were looking at was made in the 13th week of 1977 and it still works it's an mcr 106-1 it looks like that one was made in the 52nd week of 76 it's a christmas baby all right so i'm gonna scrounge one up swap those two and then we'll slide it back in and see if that fixed our buddy frank's two lights that are giving them all kinds of hell all right folks that got us our two lights back okay uh so i think all the lights are working now the next thing that he mentioned was he said that the top out hole is a little sticky let's see what he means by that it does hang a little bit i mean you can push through it but it's it's a little sticky what a perfect way to describe it let's try this one so this is basically the same mech it doesn't have the same problem okay i wonder if it's bent or something almost looks like it's touching but i don't think it is well you know what i'm gonna do first i'm just gonna oil it let me get some three in one oil and oil all the pivot points okay so i oiled it but that didn't seem to get it it just a little there's like a drag and then it breaks through it so i'm going to take the coil off it could be that the end of the plunger has a burr on it and it's scraping the inside of the uh the coil sleeve so let me pop the coil off and we'll look at the coil sleeve okay so all these coils are new uh and whenever they whenever you get them they come with a sleeve in it so way back in the day the sleeves were metal now they're nylon so the sleeve is new but the plunger is not but you don't usually have to replace these but if uh if i fill the end of this i can feel like some roughness on it like there's it's it'll get real sharp basically as it hits the coil stop it flattens itself out i wonder if i can show you on this too here i'm going to zoom in on see if you can see the uh the edge of it gonna be hard to show it to you i gotta get closer we're going in this is why you watch my videos people for this great production value okay look on the right side of it see the lip you see what i'm saying on the i can't touch it right now but the right side of it at the top see how it's curved that's because it's all smashed which is fine but the end of the plunger is like that too so what you can barely feel it like if you run your finger over it feels like a sharp edge it feels like the uh almost like the edge of a dull razor blade so it's it's got it too so what i'm gonna do is i'm gonna take a file and i'm gonna file the edge of that down just a little bit and i'm gonna put a new sleeve in it and if we get the edge of that file down where it's rounded whenever it goes through the sleeve it won't hang on the sleeve anymore and another thing you can do is check it while the coil's not on it and it's there's no drag at all right now it's perfectly smooth the whole way so it's just it's gonna be the end of that plunger and we need a new coil sleeve now those coil sleeves that's gonna set you back about 30 cents they're expensive when in doubt replace the coil sleeve they're cheap okay so i've filed away the burr on the edge of that but this wouldn't have been the problem if it was sticking halfway down it would have been the actual plunger so i did the same to the plunger again you can get these new so you could replace it the problem that you'll have with doing this is it will make it buzz more because what will happen is it won't mate exactly the same with the coil stop because this is worn a little bit and that's worn a little bit and i just filed it so now they're not worn the same so it'll try to the plunger will try to come in and mate with this and it'll it won't quite touch right and it'll go now it's not going to do that on this mech because this thing is an instant fire so it might go maybe just a little bit right so it's not as big of a deal i learned that from an operator i used to work for an operator and he uh i had we had games all out on route so whenever you're out on the route you can't wait around for that plunger to come in you got to fix the thing and get it playing today hey we got to make some money today right so uh if you had a problem there was this guy at the shop that you call and he was the expert on pinball machines and he's this older gentleman and i was a little gruffy and so i didn't know i had no clue what the hell i was doing and so i'd call him hey uh this is sticking and you know you didn't even want to call a guy but you call him hey this is sticking and he'd say have you got a file maybe a number eight or something you know what i'm thinking of myself no i do not have a number eight file in my pocket but he'd be like you need to go get a file and file down the end of the plunger so that it doesn't get stuck when it's going down through the nylon sleeve you've got some extra nylon sleeves don't you and i kind of did have those and uh he would tell you how to fix things uh so that uh you know the game wouldn't be down now people look at that now and they go oh those horrible operators they were such hacks oh god it was everything just all they cared about was a quarter yeah and that's all you care about too whenever you're at work that's their job that's how they fed their kids that's how they made their money so yeah they did whatever the hell they had to do to make another quarter if they were dishonest that's one thing but you know getting the game running again out on location by doing something like that nothing wrong with that now if i thought this was gonna be a big problem i would order the parts i don't think it's gonna be a big problem we'll test it here in a second um let me go get a new nylon sleeve and we'll put it all back together okay folks so we've got our lights all working let's test out our saucer we haven't played it yet you can hear what you can hear what they're talking about with the sound it's like all garbled but it's not the background sounds kind of garbled but it's not completely it's it's mainly the voices that seems right [Music] i think we're good so the sound is crap though yeah look at this so one of the other things he said was that the scoring was acting up watch what happens when i hit the flipper so 66 960 [Music] 67 7 660 700 points 68 360. i lost count 69 that's a 7 that's 700 [Music] okay so when i hit the flipper i'm getting 700 points so that must be the strange scoring that he was talking about what in the world would give you 700 points one two three four five six these all give you a thousand [Music] what gives you 700 points people something is uh vibrating and giving us points that we shouldn't have oh look advances xenon bonus when lit and that's advanced so maybe that's it let's see [Music] no let's see what the slings give you [Music] 74690 [Music] doesn't seem right so there's a loose switch somewhere that the vibration from the from the play field is making it i can probably do it just by shaking it [Music] nope [Music] nope [Music] all right let me look underneath and see if i see anything that looks like that it could be from the vibration of the flipper all right folks it's more complex than that if i hit the flipper it gives me 700 points if i hit the other flipper sometimes it gives me 700 points okay now if i do it by hand [Music] [Laughter] [Music] i can't seem to get it to do it if i do it by hand so i don't know but we got bigger problems look at this so here's the drops [Music] none of them are working there's a bunch of switches that don't work [Music] that's the it's the out lane it's the end lane [Laughter] we've got these rollover things at the top if i can even get to them [Music] some of them don't work [Music] spinner works oh that's the uh the out hole ball that screws it up whenever you do that it doesn't like that basically it thinks another ball went in there okay so we've got tons of switch problems basically so that that's going to be next all right folks so there you go beautiful game we've got switch problems we got to figure that out and we've got uh what was the other thing oh the sound yeah the sound's all that's unacceptable people we've got to fix that uh so we got our work cut out for us i've had xenons before i've had two or three of them myself and they're a little temperamental they got a little bit of the multi-ball thing has made it all kind of different you know and then the sound is very complex they could do what they did on the sound then now very easily but back then it was a feat to pull this off so and you can't even tell what i'm talking about yet if you haven't played it because the uh the sound is so horrible right now but it's pretty amazing once it all gets up and running so uh uh we'll work on it again there's something going on with several of the switches and the um i still don't know if the flippers is a electrical thing or a vibration thing but we'll figure it out so leave your comments below let us know what you think so far man what a beautiful game can't wait to play it what a masterpiece of artwork look at that that's how you make a good looking pinball machine folks beautiful probably the first one that was really decked out like this wasn't it so uh make sure to give us a thumbs up for taking the trouble to film for taking the trouble to film it for you we'll try to get her sounding a little better she sounds like she's had a bad cigarette addiction right now hey honey put a quarter in baby just doesn't have the same pizzazz with her voice all screwed up but you'll you'll get it on the next one so leave your comments below let us know what you think and make sure to check out my brother donnie if you don't know about him i my brother has a channel here on youtube i'm over there with him a lot of times having a
