Hi everyone, I just picked up this old ace machine and just wondered if you have any idea if it's possible to get a schematic for it? The lights come on but that's about it, it was working when put in storage 9 year's ago, any other information would be appreciated too.

I did check both fuses at the bottom of the lower board but that's all I've looked at so far.

That machine has some impressive mirror glass front! Wouldn't get that on any modern machine nowadays...

The coin entry is unusual in that it has entry for x6d for x1 play, [x6d]for sixpence coin, prior to decimalisation

however coin entries for x2 & x4 play embossed with new decimal option, eg x5np and x10np. As the sixpence

was last predecimal coin to be taken out of UK circulation. Award card payouts also state both old & new pays.

Think some of awards have been painted or scratched out?

Hope you get a schematic to get this back in action soon..!

Thanks for your reply, it seems like it's a fairly rare machine (that's not such a good thing in this instance) but hopefully the electrics are similar to some more common models, it's been kept dry so that's a bonus and I love the look of it so I'm definitely keeping it. Sorry about the quality of the photos it was getting dark as I unloaded it in the workshop.
