Title: Atari cone buttons, Help
Post by: Rocky on March 11, 2004, 12:38:22 pm

I recently aquired a pair of Atari cone buttons and the microswitches work great but the lights don't seem to work.

The bulb appears to be hard wired to the switch. Has anyone replaced the bulbs or worked on these? Also, what voltage do the lights take?

Any advice before I start hacking into them?

Thanks,

Rocky

I described replacing them in this thread:

Only caution is to not use super bright LED's.
