    Default What triggers this light

    I have what I believe to be a 1967 Nishijin. I am wondering what triggers the light at the bottom right of the playing field. It seems to be stuck on, I have checked for anything obviously stuck and can't see anything. I am new to Pachinko...

    Not familiar with this specific machine but believe that that light shows when upper hopper of balls is running out. There should be a reed switch where the chute comes out of hopper and when weight of ball is on switch, it is open. When balls are running out there will be no ball on switch allowing it to close turning on light.

    Again not familiar with his specific machine, but the hopper holding balls may the in the blue plastic window and the switch may be located there where balls leave going to the shooter.

    I was able to get the light to reset. I think it has something to do with the white lever/button on the right just above where you insert the ball to play. if anyone knows specifically what resets it that would be great!

    Here you go. I am still not sure what causes the light to come on but if I wiggle the white button/lever on the front right it will turn it off. -Alden

    Really hard to see, is there another leaf switch behind the seesaw?

    Where do the wires under the light (black and yellow) go? Only thing I can see that would trigger it. Your seesaw is in the wrong position, triggering a 'win' light.

    the light has to be for the jack pot overflow holding mech.. but i'm not seeing the switch for it..

    to me things are out of adjustment as well

    Does the machine currently work correctly?? will it play and pay consistently??

    Perhaps the two metal contacts are on the wrong side of the actuator on the seesaw. It is hard to tell from the picture, but I would flip those metal contacts onto the other side.
