Hey all

I believe my TZ is having the heat inside the clock issue, How many
have drilled a hole or two in the top like in the TOP video? Other
than switching to LED lights, anyone have other ideas besides drilling
the top? The reason I believe it has the heat issue, and please
correct me if I am wrong, the clock will be working fine, the game is
on and even with no one playing it, after an hour or so, the clock is
off it's time, and when you turn the game off it seems the hours are
off, and you get clock is broken. Wait about 10min or more, and turn
it on, clock is fine. Think it's heat?

Thanks!!!

Steve

When is the last time the optos on the boards where changed out?A
faulty opto on the hour or minute board is often intermittent.

Put these in and save your clock housing(no drilling) and put your clock
problems to bed forever.

It is a combination of heat, poor construction, and
poor design. Do not drill holes in your housing, as
this will just create new problems. The clock boards
available from the Pinball Lizard eliminates and and
corrects all of these problems.

Hey Trin

I was not posting to get a different response, I thought the first post
did not go through, so I did it again, honestly. I will probably
invest in the boards.

Thanks
