| How do repair/replace the player A button from an Area 51 arcade? [HELP!!] |
| (1/1) |
| XNIF:
I have an area 51 and it's almost done! But for some reason the player A button (the red one) does not work well. Hitting it softly 10 times gives me 1 credit :) The thing is.. i do not have a clue how to open the cabinet to get to the control panel! I opened the backside but it there are now screws to get any further! here is a movie so you can see how it looks, maybe someone had a suggestion? |
| BobA:
Buttons on a control panel are usually accessed by releasing the control panel with latches that are found on the sides of the cp. These can usually be accessed thru the coin door. |
| XNIF:
Thank you Boba.... but in this case there was no way to release some kind of clamp or something. I opened the speaker grill on the front, removed the speaker.. and then i could access the buttons. A new switch and plays like new :) |
| BobA:
Good to know. Glad you got a new switch in. Never heard of that method of getting at the switches but the cab is a unique design so I guess it has a unique access method. |
