Powering on these 2 1980's Bally 6803 pinball machines for the first time in 16 years!  

Yes, flex save coils get brown from regular use. I replaced mine but kept the old ones as spares since they're still technically good.

Great video! Thanks for taking the time to explain your board work process. I'm starting on a Popeye Saves the Earth soon and this was nice to see how "simple" board repairs can be...if you know what you're doing! ha. I would love a follow-up on the solenoid/switch issue with D&D :D

Can we play in the dark to get full effects.

Elvira ?
