We have a few members who will be able to help you with your Bally E series, and we also have some pinball collectors here as well.

We'd love to see pictures of your game room! You can start a thread in the "Home Game Rooms" board. You can only attach two pictures at a time, but members are welcome to make multiple posts when they have more pictures they wish to share.

Enjoy the forum.

Hello to all, my first post.
I'm new to the forum, having just rescued  a Game Maker from a dusty old shed. A friend of mine picked up a IGT Double Diamond and brought it over to me to fix for him. I have worked on many pinball machines so I figured what the heck, I'll try anything. After finding a manual on line and this GREAT   forum I had it up and running for him in a couple days. Turns out a stepper driver had died on the main board for the 1st reel. With the schematics and reading the heck out of this forum I was able to fix the problem. Now, just like with the pinball machines, I'm hooked . I make my living repairing injection molding machines, designing new support equipment and retrofitting various types of machines with plc's and updated controllers. I have messed with electronics since I was 12,(I'm 53 now) digging old TVs and radios out of the trash and trying to repair them. I learned very early about the capacitors and anode cap in TVs and fortunately lived to tell about it . Well I've wasted enough of your time, so I just wanted to thank all you  for a great forum and am looking forward to chat and purchase items from you to help fix the rash of machines i know will come in the near future. Did I mention I'm hooked??
Thanks to All

Hello folks. I am new to this forum and fairly green to this community. I bought my first game in Feb. and as of now, own Capcom Commando, Robocop, Double Dragon, R-Type, and 2 4-slot Neo's. (1 working and 1 not). I do more reading than posting as I like to try fix things myself. On a side note, this forum seems to be the most informative site there is for this community. May have just found a new home.
