    Default Vintage Custom Arcade Pachinko

    Have had this machine for a year. Electrical components are not being triggered by the control board. Pockets are disabled as they are blocked by a custom mechanical assembly that is released by a solenoid and cable setup coming from the top of the machine. If you manually pull the cable you can get balls to pass through the pockets/flowers (which after leaving the seesaw go back to the front tray). Payouts are controlled by a solenoid rather than gravity. It never gets activated when winners are made.

    The coin acceptance box has no key, but is wired into the system as the players start point. Putting a quarter in doesn't do anything.

    My question - Does this machine, with its custom configuration have any value in this configuration (even thought it doesn't work)?

    OR

    I'd be happy to eliminate the coin option and just try to get it working. Can I just cut the 3 wires going to the coin box and eliminate it?

    I'm just reluctant to start getting heavy handed with changing / altering / damaging components if it is going to devalue it (if it even has any intrinsic value).

    Sorry pics are not great. Phone camera is on its last legs.
