    Question Help!

    Introduction
    I'm a freshman to the world of pachinko, and I am literally a freshman. A month ago, My parents brought back a vintage pachinko from some garage sale. It has sat in my garage for 2 weeks until I discovered it and stole it. I began researching the machine and found that it was a 1974 nishijin super deluxe pachinko machine. Not pinball. It didn't work, so I googled it and found a basic site about how to make it run. I fixed it and cleaned it. Then I ordered pachinko balls. Yesterday I took off these rusty old chunks of laminated plywood which were being used as pegs. I replaced it with an oak slab I routered and polyurethaned.
    Problem 1
    Now, I've been working on electronics and have a problem. The center display doesn't light. I suspect it was worked on before because the pressure sensor was chopped off and was hidden in the machine. However, I was wondering if there was a way to fix this.
    Problem 2
    The final issue I'm having is that I see a lever attached to the area in which the winner ball falls to the bottom. it has a metal wire which is bent. What does it do?
    Your newest noob,
    Guppy
    p.s.-For some reason my pictures won't load. I'll try to fix this but it's giving me a weird error.
