Shuffle Inn Light?

[bjhille]

I recently purchased a Shuffle Inn puck bowling machine off of Craigslist that I'm trying to restore.  I have fixed the system board so the machine doesn't fall into maintenance mode every time you turn the machine on, adjusted all the play field switches, fixed many contacts that were broken, replaced the bumpers, swapped bulbs for LEDs, and have ordered new display boards.

I have one set of wires I can not figure out.  I have attached a picture.  From what I'm gathering, there should be a light behind the credit button, although the manual doesn't reference this.  Does anyone know what part I'm missing and where I can get it?  I've asked a couple of pinball repair places, but they don't seem that interested in helping me.  Any ideas?

Thanks.  Brian

Looks like a plug for a ticket dispenser to me.

I'm not aware that the machine came with a ticket dispenser.  I assumed it was a light because the placard above the start button that says to push it when lit.  It never lights because there's not bulb.  I *think* that's what this three wire cable is for, but I can't figure it out for sure.  The manual doesn't talk about it.

Do you think Happ would know if I called them?

Thanks.  Brian

I'm not aware of any bulbs that need 3 wires.  Usually unused plugs in that area are for ticket dispensers or dollar bill acceptors.  I consulted Google and if you've got a Shuffle Inn Deluxe, one of the advertised features was ticket dispensing capability.
