1 Introduction
Eight Ball Deluxe Limited Edition was built in October 1982. The game features the same playfield as Bally's 1981 Eight Ball Deluxe but is hosted in cabinets remaining from production of Bally's Rapid Fire.
1.1 Identical Lamp Harness Connectors
The two lamp wiring harnesses connecting playfield lamps to the lamp driver board and the auxiliary lamp driver board each have a 15 pin .093 molex "straight through" connector in the backbox. These connectors are identical and can be mixed up and cross connected. Fortunately, this doesn't cause damage to the game. It does prevent many playfield lamps from lighting, like the "DELUXE" lamps left of the pool ball lamps, the 56,000, Special, and 112,000 lamps just above the flippers, and most of the lamps up the left side orbit. Of course, the lamps that do light won't match the intended game features.
As always, the wire colors going into one side of a connector should match the wire colors coming out the other side of the connector.
