I have a full size dartboard with a coin door. Since there is no free play option I would like to wire a credit button up, how do I do this? Thanks |

Drill hole, mount button, splice wires into wiring for one of the coin door switches. You can use any kind of momentary pushbutton( the ones at Radio shack can be pretty small and still look nice. Actually, you can use any kind of pushbutton. My top-gunner cabinet had a frikkin doorbell button mounted on the coin door when I got it. |

So I just need to tap into the two wires on the bottom? An connect them to a push button? |

On my machine, I wired a new coin switch in parallel with the existing one and set it up so pressing in the coin return plunger activates it so I didn't have to drill through my coin door. |
