you're a lucky bastard boy, bela, because i think i have exactly what you are looking for. the following chassis was pulled from a working defender where the owner accidently slammed the neck, so i'm pretty sure this thing is working. and i'm damn near 100% sure that this is for a wells gardner k4600. can anyone confirm?

Well, there is still the issue of the not-matching neckboard for that tube...

There are also a lot of K46xx versions, I don't know much about them though.

you're right, andré, i thought bela is in need of the chassis, but he already HAS a K4600 chassis, what he needs is a matching tube ...

Hmmm...
I compared the layout of the pinholes of the original neckboard with the hacked one, seems like the same to me.
I'm not sure, but maybe Ully's chassis will fit right to this tube.What do you think?

Do you have the same pin configuration on your Defender tube Ully?

Finally my thin old friend came and solved the problem, there was no outcoming video signal from the pcb and also was something wrong with the sync. ;D


The screen still has a minor vibration and we will have to fix the coin mech. and the test buttons, but it's working!!! ;D




Wohoooo, I'm really happy with the result. ;D ;D ;D
To make it 100% perfect, I would take your spare chassis Ully. ;)

He started to repair video games and  pinballs in the 80's, he is a sorcerer but very busy, everybody wants him. ;D
He didn't do anything with that neckboard, just he was battling for breath when he saw it. ;D
He told me that the original was broken (cracked) and they hacked it with an Orion TV neckboard, that causes the minor vibration.
I will replace the cpo and also order a joystick rebuild kit of course, just have to wait until next month. ;)

Nice Vanguard...

Paul.

Thats really nice, and it has the Spacestaion artwork(in front) Etienne! ;)

Nice that you think of me, but i pass for 3 reasons
1. 511,8 km for just the bezel and the CPO...
2. already 7 bids and the price is climbing
3. it would be a crime to ditch the rest and only keep the CPO and bezel...

If someone wants to grab it, and does not need the bezel and CPO, then i am willing to throw in 50€ for that ;)

That is a home made power supply and test equipment, that retro soldering station was just put on the top of it. ;D ;D ;D

I was kidding, but I would be happy

I was kidding of course, but I would be happy if somebody could take it from our community, we should keep the Zaccs inside! ;D ;D ;D
If nobody will, it will be my responsibility again. ;)
