Again, I am new to the forum and collecting. I picked up a 1947 Pace Deluxe Chrome not long ago. I am no expert, I'm not even a beginner. When I bought it, I looked at the inside and it needs to have a good cleaning. It was paying out, but not perfectly. If you hit a 14 coin payout, it would pay 12 or 13, an 18 coin payout would pay 16 or 17. Although I want it to work perfectly, this didn't seem like a huge deal. We recently hit the jackpot and it didn't release the jackpot in the window and it now won't payout at all. It will "click" like it is releasing a payout, but nothing happens. Again, I am not an expert, but it seems like there is a jam.
Also it is a little difficult to pull the handle, not s bad as it won't pull, just a little "clunky".
Does anyone have any ideas on this? Is there an easy fix that I could do? Does anyone know of a place near Atlanta, Georgia that does service and repair on these machines?
