    Question Kyoraku wiring with plugs?

    Hi all! I've been off the radar with some "life stuff" for a bit but I've returned with this Kyoraku I was recently gifted. It has a bunch of plugs but is a straight vintage, as far as I can tell. I can see it's missing the jackpot cover and the other cover over the see saw dealy, but can you tell me what else might be missing? I've searched threads and the pachinko museum over on flickr but can't find anything that looks like this - no transformers or solenoids. Maybe they've been stripped out? Any advice would be welcome. Thanks!

    ps - somehow, my collection grew to an even TEN machines when I wasn't looking!

    looks to be one of those strange machines that has an electro magnet that shuts off the shooter when low on balls... nearing the end of the vintage flipper machines...

    geting it working as original might be hard.. seems like i have seen a machine or two like that but i cant remember for the life of me what it really required..

    Have not seen that exact model myself. Speculate that there was another wiring harness with the counterpart plugs.

    Looks straight forward to me though. One circuit for the jackpot lights and one circuit for the low reward tray.

    If there is a circuit for a loading flag; it would be in the front of the machine inside the shooting door. If the machine won't load; that is probably the case.
    Just take those parts out of the way. Might just be another light bulb though.

    Sure enough, there appears to be a switch and solenoid for a loading flag. I'm just going to remove it like you suggested. Maybe it's an opportunity to add some lights since I only see one at the top of the machine and I like shiny lights. Thanks!

    I lied. I can't tell what this is supposed to do:

    Front: IMAG0737.jpg Back: IMAG0740.jpg

    In the capsule in the front, the blue and yellow wires go to a little copper wind, and in the back they go to a leaf switch. The low ball stopper thing operates like normal, independent of this situation.

    There are a lot of pieces missing in your front view. The feature has been previously disabled? Or you removed the correct parts. You don't need that feature.

    I know nothing of the machine, but I'll go +1 with CarlW and Mopar. There is an empty post to the right of the solenoid. I'm guessing that is a pivot point for whatever the solenoid was supposed to lift. I would say the feature has been disabled.

    Of course, you need to clean out the cat fur...or what looks like cat fur...well, if it was in my house, it would cat fur.

    I haven't removed anything yet so I'd say someone else's fingers have already poked around in there. I'm just going to ignore and start cleaning this puppy up. Thanks for all your input!
