    Question Animal Land KABAMARUKUN Hungry Hippo NISHIJIN Hanemono - shooter won't shoot

    Animal Land KABAMARUKUN Hungry Hippo NISHIJIN Hanemono

    I finally got all my pachis out of storage as I moved back to the east coast, from the west. The ones from the last container, including this one, were now available to test. Unfortunately, I remembered as I pulled this one out, that it was in fact THIS one that had taken a tumble out of the truck in McLean, as they were loading it in.
    'Whoops'... said my US agent...' The boys got careless'.
    I quickly forgot about it - until today.

    Damage is that the shooter won't run at all - everything looks OK, but the thing just won't do anything.
    Everything else works perfectly, after I adjusted the game back into its frame, where it had unevely dislodged after falling some 4 feet on it's head, to the earth from the truck.

    Thoughts on what to check/to do next?

    Default Animal Land KABAMARUKUN Hungry Hippo NISHIJIN Hanemono - shooter won't shoot

    Take some pictures Jon, just for grins and if it turns out the motor is possibly shot, I'll send you a compatible motor to test and see if thats what the problem is

    I'm almost certain I've got at least two parts machine in that frame style

    Well, I wouldn't exactly say 'covered'... still got a busted shooter (or at least, one that doesn't have power to work).

    I guess if I was DIY, I'd get a multi-meter and figure this out - but alas, no idea what to do with it if I had one.
