SAITEK F1 SUPER CHALLENGE PINBALL score head led modding

Modification made in the head of the game, with 4 blinking leds. I previously added 11 leds in the playfield, and 4 highlightning leds for the targets (2 blue, 2 green). I also added a red big "Start" button in the front of the body of the machine. This way you don´t have to reach the head with your finger, something anthistetic in my opinion. The result is an Amazing giant size pinball, features digital score, sampled music and special effects, 4 metal legs, 2 players, 2 active bumpers, 3 counting bumpers, 7 active rollovers (1 with special bonus balls), you can open, close the wider ones, 2 hard targets, 1 hidden hole, 2 ramps (1 elevated), 2 . A dream in your home. Also features 4 extra balls (giving a total of 9 balls per credit). I know 3 variations, the other 2 models are called "4x4 Monster pinball", and "Route 66 pinball", both very nice also.

Then you can make little holes in the playfield (in the slingshot plastic area near the springs) with a hot electric solder.Use some glue to stick the leds.I made 2 in every slingshot, 2 in the outer loop and one in top of the spinner.Respect the polarity and put the wires in parallel (join all the positive legs -with the resistor from the board, 5V- and the negative legs to the GND).You can attach some more blinking leds with no resistor in combination with the insert circle lamps.

Hi, RetroRoad, you only have to remove the screws under the playfield,and the hard cover,in the mainboard locate two points: GND(ground) and 5v.(you have to confirm this number of volts,I cannot remember as I haven´t got the game at hand).Take the energy for the blue hi-light leds (it accepts any number) from this two points and putting a resistance in the + polarity (purchase the suitable resistance in every electronic component shop in your city,telling them the value of volts in the board).

I've been trying to find information on how to do this. I have a similar machine with very few lights on it, and I want to add more so that it looks better and plays at night. Any help or tips on where I should look?
