    Default new to Pachinko, i have questions

    I have a modern pachinko machine that I cant get to launch balls. It looks like everything is there but on the back at the top right it looks like there are 2 terminals that are not wired. I would like to find more info on the brand and model and even a wiring diagram.

    more pictures..

    can you post a better picture of the back right side.. where the balls stop...

    there are a few frames from this era that are fraught with problems,, (not sure if this is one of those)

    and of course

    It's a Heiwa frame, it looks to be a early/mid 90's kenrimono style gameplay pachinko....much more rare than a regular digipachi or hanemono type.

    Looks to me like the balls are getting jammed in the chute leading down to the payout motor?? Closer pics of the ball jam area and inspecting for debris/bugs/rusty balls would help. It might have a switch that prevents the shooter from working if there is a ball jam....my 2003 Penguin has this feature I'm sure of. Did it ever work properly before you acquired it?

    Welcome Aboard




    Well it is a Heiwa 弁慶パニック (Benkei Panic according to google translate )
    and if has the blue B-1 board that are known to go wrong and stop the shooter from working.
    As above, check for anything that might cause the motor to stick or ball jam. Failing that. look deeper

    The connectors up by the switch are frame and cell connectors that connect to the parlor, unnecessary for home use.

    IMG_1668.JPGIMG_1670.JPGIMG_1671.JPGThese pics are before I was able to get balls all the way down the right hand side, and its still not shooting balls. I am curious if the B1 board could be an issue?

    You could try adjusting the 2 pots on the board as they are strength and sensitivity levels. Also.the reset button. Failing that. It's time to find someone who might be able to fault find the board. If you have a volt meter check to make sure power is getting to the board.

    I've adjusted the two knobs and am getting voltage to the board. Is there someone to check the boards? Thanks!
