Sankyo Flying Carpet - Newb Needs help/machine info/advice on repairs

[Cheverisi]

First of all, since Pachinko is not something you find in Middle-of-Nowhere, America (My current living area), What in the world is a Victory Frame? I am still new to this. Some good news: I finally reassembled the ball launching knob, reattached the grounding wire, and the plastic assembly this weekend from memory without pictures and it took me about 1-2 hours to figure out.

Before finding that your skin must come in contact with the metal plate on the ball launcher's grounding circuit for the knob to work, I was stumped as to why my motor seemed defective. I finally found a way to jerry rig the ground wire to the wire facing on the knob, after reading a random modern pachinko post, and noticed that there was a loose red L-shaped piece of plastic floating around in the inner assembly. I saw what the piece may have attached to inside, but the piece blocked the ball propelling arm when screwed back into the slot it had fit. I ended up unscrewing this weird red L piece and the ball launching arm worked perfectly.

My question now is where does it go? -- There is a small opening for a screw on one part of the plate on the L and an anchoring stud beside it that would fit into a small hole, like a screw, but the only area it fit ended up blocking my launching arm from playing the balls in the machine.

I also found what a missing green wire went to on the side of the machine, that had a slot alongside the slot where the motor's electric cord plugs into the main machine. It appears to light up the Sankyo logo on the side of the machine, but the light is missing, along with the connecting wire, and is probably not going to be fixed.

Lastly, if this will help with the display, there are 2 "Go" lights that blink during the jackpot rounds on the machine to describe it for detail.

I will include more pictures below of what I have:

First of all, since Pachinko is not something you find in Middle-of-Nowhere, America (My current living area), What in the world is a Victory Frame?

'Victory' is the name of a frame manufactured by Sankyo roughly between 2002 and 2004, manufacturers use different frames over the years and certain games can be put into certain frames, so for members that 'cell swap' it's always handy to know what frame you have so if you don't have room for another full complete pachinko, you can just buy a cell and pop it in the frame. (It's also helpful when trouble shooting - members may not have the specific game in question but may have another in the same frame and can assist).

Here is a handy link that shows some frames and names, date, etc they were used, if you click on each you will also find a list of some games that fit each frame, for instance the 'Victory' frame shows 20+ games.

Sorry I can't help with the trouble shooting, but hopefully other members can offer advise
