To help me preventing repairs with 'no thank you', I ask a standard 15 euro (*) compensation for
my time and efforts to help you to repair your pinball by email.
You need some skill of electronics, measuring devices and repair tools
*) The fee is based on fair use.

If needed I can repair your boards at my place. You pay for used parts (*) and postage back.
If I succeed in repairing your boards, the fee is 50 euro per board.
*) Thus parts I bough and keep, are not charged.

Repairing a cabinet is done (if possible) on site (with travel expenses)
or (preferred) at my place, were you deliver and collect the machine / parts.

If you have any trouble with repairing your Atari-pinball, don't hesitate to drop me a mail
 and I will try to help you       (by mail).
If I can help you, maybe you can help me increasing my collection :-)

The first Atari pinball machine I bought, was a Space Riders (for cheap) But it was not working.
After many sleepless nights and many PCB-repairs (14 chips replaced!) I finally found the fault!!

The second was a Superman. Again non-working. This one I also managed to repair
(electronical and mechanical), and it's a superb machine!!

Then I repaired a Time 2000, The main PCB (playfield) I could get to work, but the aux-board seemed to be a larger problem.
I tried many things, but it didn`t work. Then I went to Flipperwinkel.nl and they helped me fixing the problem!!

By now I have repaired 3 more space-riders PCB's
and a score-displayunit.     What is next.... 

Atari made 2 types of pinball PCB's. the most common one you can find here:
"
Avenger Manual".
This manual is most useful for trouble shooting  Atari pinball machines, since only the ROM's and
playfield are different. The latest PCB is only used in superman, hercules and the prototypes.
You can email me about this PCB if you have questions.
