Wanted for Maverick pinball machine

[John Beveridge]

Hi i am looking for a translite in good undamaged condition or NOS for a Maverick pinball.

Also looking for a large display to suit same machine, must be 100 % working with no missing lines and no dark and faded sections.

I recently bought the machine and the seller never mentioned the display had a line out or the translite looks like the glass had broken at some point and caused various small scratches.........or the fact the right flipper chattered away despite the description saying everything worked fine .

Anyway if anyone can be of any help it would be appreciated,

Thanks.
John. 07773 76055.

Sounds like a maverick Maverick seller.

Here is a NOS one. Ships to UK.

Or you could try the colour pin2dmd one.

Sorry if i've not updated the status of mine but i sold it 2 weeks ago.

I would bite the bullet and go for the NOS one, I tried to find one this side of the pond without much luck a while back and they are getting rarer as there were a number up for sale when I had mine, but other things took preference over the translite like trying to get the damm thing to work properly.And as for the DMD that's another story that led a life of its own despite having the 5v upgrade done.

Thanks to all that have tried to help. I managed to source a NOS translite today and picked it up along with a nice undamaged start button i needed.
I think i would rather go for the new colour display rather than fork out two or three hundred on a used one. Once i have finished bringing the machine up to a good standard i can decide whether i can justify spending that sort of money on a Maverick !

Cheers,
John.

John the line out may be fixable?

Hi Ronnie, that would be a bonus if it were !

 

[ronnie63]

I forget if these have the solid pins or the ribbons? Been a while since I had a Maverick and your Batman Forever!

 

[John Beveridge]

Unfortunately it`s the ribbons........i have managed to repair the solid pins on certain displays on occasions.

What about a Dr pinball kit. I installed one in my Frankenstein and one in Batman Forever. Part kit you get from Dave, the rest you buy yourself using his site for where to buy and building up the colour display. If i can do it, anyone can.
Cost for everything is £200 +\- a few quid.
Well worth it as it looks great imo

 

[ronnie63]

Ah they tend not to break, is it an end or top bottom line?

Thanks for that, i`ll keep that as a possibility to be decided once i have done all the other work to the machine i can decide.
Cheers,

Hi Ronnie,

It is a horizontal line near the top , doesn`t show in the scores but it does on the letters of the high scores near the top.

Cheers,

Might be worth looking at the ribbon John? not sure if one of the chips would cause that, if you get stuck I could have a look at it for you.
