    Default Adding volume knob and what this light



    So I’m new to Pachinko and this is the 1st one I picked up, paid 100.00 for it and so far, I’m really enjoying it... I have two questions.....

    1) can I add a volume knob, where and how??

    2) why is it that this light stays on ?

    Thanks you all for your help..

    Check this topic for some info: http://www.pachitalk.com/forums/show...A-How-To-Guide

    Also, many machines have a small slide switch on the PCBs somewhere that typically have 2 or 3 volume settings. You might check on the back to see if you can spot anything that looks promising.

    As for the light, I have no Maruhon machines so this is a guess but all of my other machines have various small LEDs on the playboard that seem to provide diagnostic or activity indications. Maybe it's something like that...

    Nice looking machine - looks like fun!

    I have the Woody Woodpecker pachinko in the same frame very enjoyable ! I was wanting to get the Dragon cell but at the time it just didn't happen ( Cost of shipping cost or just the condition of the machine being offered)


    in getting the volume problem solved. And ...

    When things don't go right the 1st time , Step back ,Take a break and come back renewed. RGS
