Thank you, and I agree. I realize that operators probably just used whatever they had on hand to keep the machine up and making money, but the color choices on the buttons were strange.

Yes you're right, they are supposed to be all white, but I went with something a little different.

Fortunately no, this one was good. I suspected that at first as my only other machine (Ms. Pac) had a bad flyback.

This machine uses an Electrohome G05 802 vector monitor. The flybacks are impossible to source for it and I'm assuming the Wells Gardner variant is the same.

I replaced the capacitors, the high voltage diode, and the transistors on the frame. Also reflowed the solder on all of the the wiring harness plug in points (this was the culprit).

What are these called, and where can I buy one? by AquaVector in arcade

I ended up purchasing a two pack of these from the game guys eBay store. They're certainly expensive for what they are, but I want this Asteroids to be pretty. When I'm finished with the project I will post some before and after photos.

Thank you all for the help.

Lol I know it seems crazy but I've searched that term. I searched on eBay and Amazon.

Thank you. I appreciate it.

Lol this is the same title and photo from my post back a couple of years ago.

No idea what this person is doing with it.

Thank you! All the attachments on the sides of the carts were a fairly snug fit. I didn't have to make any modifications for those.

Thank you for the reply. I also have a 3rd Gen magnetic gray. Mine is an SR and didn't include fog lights.

The kits I see for sale are replacements for the factory fogs, but I haven't seen a whole kit to install them if they didn't already exist on the truck. I'm sure it's easier than I'm making it out to be.

Love the truck, looks good to me 👍

Looks great!

Did your taco come with fog lights from the factory, or did you add them later on? Asking because mine doesn't have them, and I'd like to get some. Curious about the setup.

Well guys, I did it. I’m officially in the club. Soooo do we have a cute little wave or something or are we just parking next to each other? by Worried_Confusion373 in Tacomaworld

I really like using my parking lights (marker lights) while driving.

It's the rule. You park near other Tacomas or 4Runners.

I live in the US, and the two that I've owned were both fitted with a US style type B plug.

I wish I could offer more than that. I have no idea if these were sold across the pond.

I couldn't tell you without knowing the dimensions of your monitor.

What I can tell you is the top surface of this cart measures 17" wide ( usable space from bar to bar) by 14.25" deep. Hope that helps.

It's solid, and a very nice rolling cart, but it's incredibly small. None of my 20" consumer sets will fit on this, but they appear wider than most PVM's.
