    Default Help Wanted With Pachinko Repair

    Hello.

    I have an old family Sanyo Pachinko machine, but it has been broken for many years.

    I think the problem is that the balls are getting stuck in the back (they do not finish the cycle in the back to the front).

    If anyone lives in the Phoenix, Arizona area who can help me repair my machine, or if you can offer suggestions on how I can fix it myself, I would greatly appreciate it.

    Attached are pictures of the machine (front and back).


    Thank you everyone.

    Looks like it may be the typical Sanyo sticky ramp below the payout. You will need to disassemble the back to gain access to it.

    Welcome, you will need to get the stack of balls out of the payout area.

    Welcome to Pachitalk

    those darn comet II machines are either perfect or sticky / stuck and wont work... lots of cleaning and q-tipping in your future..

    jump in and take lots of pictures as you take it apart.. if it moves on a vintage machine it should move with with little to zero effort..

    Lift this wire, it looks like a giant paperclip and the balls will dump out of the shoot.

    If it does not freely move back to the upper reset position.
