Who manufactures the PCB connectors in the Pachinko machines

[Gadgetguy]

Hello all,

I would like to put in a removable autoplay button in my machines.

This is easy to do, all I need is a plug and a socket (plus of course the normally closed pushbutton), which would go between the motherboard and the plug from the start pocket.

The only question is now: how is that plug and socket / connector ( 2 pin connector for start pocket ) called, or who manufactures it? I most of the time order electronic parts online (from digikey or partsexpress) and I would hate to order the wrong part...

Could please anyone advise me?

Thank you!

Regards,

Miklos

a lot of the connectors on these machines are made by JST, couldn't say which ones though.

Wow. Thousands of connectors - and most look very similar. I am sure if I pick one it will be 99% the correct one, but it will not fit, as it has to be 100% correct...

Would anyone please know the exact name or model number of this specific connector (for Sankyo Lumina start pocket cable plug)?

The Sankyo machines use Molex connectors (rather than JST, which are used by the majority of the others!).

The start pocket connector is a Molex Microclasp 2.0mm Pitch Single Row Housing (part number 51382-0200) which houses crimp terminal contacts (part number 56134-9100).

The mating PCB header is part number 55932-0210 or 55932-0230 for a straight header and 55935-02xx for right angle.

This information is only valid for Sankyo Victory and Lumina frame machines (and possibly other Sankyo machines I haven't checked myself), I haven't seen any other manufacturers who use this exact same style of connector.

Sorry, I was thinking battle counter connectors

Wow! Now that is what I call answering a question!
