Title: Help with a Williams Dotmation harness issue Post by: tollguy316 on June 02, 2011, 05:20:49 PM Hello all.... I am piecing together a Palace of Riches kit. My issue >>>>> I need the harness that goes to the triangle shaped lamp board in the top box. Does anyone possibly have one; the schematics for one; one that I could borrow to duplicate ; even a pic of the harness ? The harness has 16 pins on the end from the machine and 14 pins on the end going to the triangle shaped lamp board in the top box. I enclosed a pic of the front and back of the lamp board. Thanks in advance for any assistance . Bill

I looked at mine and there is a 16 pin plug that goes to the machine and a 14 pin that plugs to the back of the Bonus round Spinner.

What does the one with the 4 pin hook to? I did notice that mine would not take paper money, that it only took coins, added credits and paid from the hopper at cashout. I thought it may have been because the game is pre 1994. After I hit the Jackpot on the Top Cat I put in my BBPB and everything worked fine, including the BV. Would this harness make any difference?

The second Harness is just from the Backplane to the Top Box, the 4 pin connector is for the Candle Title: Re: Help with a Williams Dotmation harness issue Post by: dale on June 02, 2011, 09:12:11 PM The second plug is for the 400s that have a 24 pin with only 4 wires out of it for the candle. I see that in my 400. My 405 already has this in place. Thanks for the info. I am putting that harness in my 400 so I can convert that to my Top Cat game. I happen to have this harness. Thanks for bringing this up.
This also solved the problem I was having with the candlelight. It works! Title: Re: Help with a Williams Dotmation harness issue Post by: tollguy316 on June 03, 2011, 02:13:46 AM Thank you Dale and Jim for the info and pics... Bill
