It is best to do repairs on games where it is going to be played. Digital games with problems in a circuit board(s) will require special evaluation. Performing circuit board repair in the field can be risky compared to doing board repair on “the bench” with access to proper equipment and parts is preferred. If this is the case, a return trip would be required incurring additional time and mileage to repair your sick game.
Sometimes, to save a required return trip, if a digital game has been dormant for years and you’re technically inclined, by discussing your game’s condition to our technical staff, you might be able to remove the circuit board that will require attention. By bringing or shipping the circuit boards to the Pinball Store could bypass the initial service call where we remove the boards to take back to the Pinball Store for the proper bench repair. Once the circuit boards are repaired and tested we’ll contact you to set up the service call.
