Here's the front and back. It will not shoot any balls.

Those two little black knobs on the Blue control board on the back of the machine try moving them a little bit clockwise while having the knob on front turned half clockwise.

And you have the ball stop "forks" on the back top ball tray down blocking the balls path to the payout motors. The "Forks" have to be up for ball payouts.

Heiwa machines of that era are known to have a board that frequently goes bad which controls the shooter.

Ugh the dreaded B-1 shooter control system; good luck! Maybe convert to manual shooter? Would be cool!

[roastizard]

Dreaded B1? This don't sound good.. if so....bad... I have no Idea how to convert.. but would like to know more about this infamous B1

The board in question in these Heiwas is of poor design and frequently fails. That’s about it, happens quite a bit with these. Certain machines are more prone to certain problems; like this. Sankyo Luminas are also about as reliable as Fiats in certain cases. Don’t get me started..

It sucks but think of it as time to upgrade!

Where can I purchase a conversion ?

Are there FUSES for this that may have blown?

The issue is. No one of our memebers who have electronic experience have a machine with that board. So it's never been looked at by those with a knowledgeable eye. Its probably something really simple to fix, like a faulty capacitor or something.

In that picture the top tray is empty does it have a disconnect that stops balls feeding to the shooter when there's no payout?

Hello roastizard and welcome to the group

In that picture the top tray is empty does it have a disconnect that stops balls feeding to the shooter when there's no payout?

I took a look at mine and the shooter still runs without any balls in the machine.

I have a spare B1-f box if that's what you need. I'll need to test it again as it has sat unused for many years.

Did you try the reset button on your B1-f box? This is from your earlier picture.

There should also be two numbers next to the button as well. I don't know yet what the different code numbers mean.

[roastizard]

If that's what I need..sure...I'll rent or buy from you and return ...

I'll try to test the spare in my machine tomorrow and we can go from there.
