Hello - I recently relocated my Mata Hari to Florida from Georgia and it was sitting in my garage for a year or so. I think humidity might have taken a toll on it. I can deliver the pin if need as long as it’s not too far - I’m in the Sarasota area.

Any suggestions? 

Thanks in advance and pic for interest

It would help if you let us know what the game is and isn't doing. Looks like it lights up, does it start a game or are things not working when playing a game?

I sent a PM to him earlier and he hasn’t responded, probably found help elsewhere.

if the picture is accurate and it boots, everything else is connectors and basic maintenance on your classic Bally.

if it doesn't have an Alltek MPU, you put one in right away, and then start with the troubleshooting.  :)

those classic Ballys are the friendliest of machines to repair.

i'll repair it for free, just pay for parts. of course, you are bringing the machine to me, down in Boynton. ;D

Been busy with a house renovation and finally coming up for air. I thought I had someone coming out to fix it but they’’re MIA. I have new boards and the game fires up, playfield lights up, back glass lights up except P4. When you push start, nothing happens.

I’m on Anna Maria and can possibly deliver if not too far…
