Rebuilding a Gameplan MPU-1

(1/6) > >>

SirPeale:
I'm in the process of repairing a "Foxy Lady" pinball that will be donated to the American Classic Arcade Museum when it's done.

This unit sat in a storage shed for ~20 years until it was "unearthed" recently.

Of course the MPU-1 board has the usual battery damage.

First thing I've done is soak the board in vinegar to neutralize the batter damage.  Then a good rinse and dried in the oven for several hours.

I'm trying to source the DIP switches now...these don't quite look what I'm going for here...

What's a better match on Mouser?

SirPeale:
I guess it helps if I get the correct mounting type...

SirPeale:
Anyone?

ChadTower:

Considering where this game is going to end up worst case is to just hard jump the config...

SirPeale:
The whole board is bad.  Worst battery damage I've ever seen.  I'm fine with replacing the switches.

I found a bartop board that had a neat trick: socketing the switchbanks.  Switches go bad, just swap them out.  Might try that.
