It's not really common but like anything can happen funny when you see the smoke 🤣

The worst thing is repairing a game that some hack had his hands in in the past. Thankfully, it ended up in competent hands. Looking forward to seeing you again at York. Make sure you bring enough hay for Spanky!

Oh we've met before ? What's your name? Spanky willbe onthe Yuengling at York.

Had the same burn on one of my relays. Accidentally left a diode on some of my coils and totally fried it. Ended up replacing it after. Great video!

As an owner of a Pro Football, I highly recommend replacing the light in the upper middle of the playfield with either a flashing bulb or a colour changing LED. Either has a very affective visual impact on this game at that upper/centre position. If you want to see what it looks like borrow a flashing bulb from behind the back glass, where there should be 3 of them, behind the words 'pro', 'foot' and 'ball' that turn on only with the 'gameover' light.

We have plenty of 455 flasher bulbs 💡 but it's not our game. Thanks for the suggestion, though I will tell the owner.

Have y’all done a video on how to properly adjust and gap slingshots and stand up targets to keep them sensitive and not hammering?

No we haven't but shall do that in a mini repair video in the future. Thanks for your suggestion 😊

Hmm... Wondering if the game was high-tapped. Needlessly high-tapping a game accelerates wear on steppers, score units, etc., and can cause increased arcing and overheats coils. Shop a game properly, and there's no need to high-tap it if the line voltage is adequate.

No it wasn't simply old age wear and tear in this instance.
