An new adventure begins with my second Future Spa project ( the first one was 10 years ago ). viewtopic.php?f=25&t=18961
I'm going to start by getting it to work and use it as a garage pin for now and one day if i find a nice backglass I'll do full resto with hardtop ( something a haven't tried yet ) .
It's on legs , i need to fixe some displays , put in some boards , have a quick look under playfield and turn it ON
To be continued......

Over the week i changed the driver board , cleaned a few switches, repinned a few connectors , fixed the slingshot kicker , replaced a broken plastic and more .
The game plays 100% but not as it should
This game will need lots of TLC
The good thing is I prefer working on games than playing . I can play anytime but bringing back a classic to life is more rewarding for me .
1 day at a time I'll make it beautiful again

Today I tried the sound board nothingat test point 1 (and soon realized comparing FS with ST schematics it was missing A8J1-10) added wire . I I'm now getting the right powers ( fixed a broken wire on speaker, i will test again later).
I cleaned every playfield inserts, changed every light bulb , changed a few light sockets .
With some lights still not working , I had to find missing wires and modify harness .
I just need to find out why the 2nd U is not working .

Plays Very nice , smooth and fast .
Started with the head with plywood leftover from last project. Also made piece for the front.
Picked up wood for trim and and marked the pieces ready to cut.
Prepared the connectors with proper colored wires for auxiliary lamp board.

did you use hard wood for the head and cabinet?
I used 3/4 plywood good 1 side for front of cabinet and sides, top and bottom of head , 1/2 plywood for the back and hard wood for the frame around backglass
