They just got done with a four-part series on Steve Richie. From working for Atari to now working for Jersey Jack. Pretty interesting stuff.

Oh cool. Silverball chronicles on TPN? I listened to that!

Sorry I had to crack up when i saw the cord running through the spinner.. looks like my kind of luck!

What's happening Mike, I couldn't tell what you were doing with the ground wire mod in the bottom of the cabinet, but did you add a quick disconnect so when you remove the head you don't have to desolder the wire? Lol I was wondering if the plug wire was routed correctly before you install the new plug. Thanks for sharing

Yo bro!! Yep indeed! Just loosen the screw in the cabinet and the wire slips out! I have another power supply I will test today :)

You used a Super Capacitor inside of using a backup battery to remember the high score? I'm not sure if that is considered good to have all those ground wires and different grounds. Its suppose to have all the ground to one star location at the transformer metal chassis. When you have multiple ground wires it creates more noise and hum issues.

Hi Wayne. Check this info out on ground wires and let me know what you think! www.pinwiki.com/wiki/index.php?title=Gottlieb_System_80#Ground_updates

That is correct about the 5.5v super cap! The link I sent you also has information about that as well!!

This game is System 80A, right? Connectors are definitely important here, they could be what's leading to improper voltages causing the game to not boot. I would check every connector and see if any look suspicious. Also the edge contacts need to be good too, and sadly they're the weak point of this era (trust me, my Pinball Pool gave me SO much grief because of that). The other thing I would do is maybe dial up the power supply a bit to 5.03 volts instead of right at 5. That power gets some resistance going through the wires, so compensating a bit shouldn't hurt it.

Thanks man. Good info! You will see I swapped the power supply in the next video and what happened 🙄
