Title: Mr. Do replacement buttons Post by: jammadude on May 21, 2014, 06:26:14 am I am looking to replace all the buttons on my Mr. Do. They are unique and I would love to keep it close to original. Really its the only item on the machine that needs to be cleaned up/replaced. I have fixed all other issues. Thoughts? Any rare stash someone might be selling?

Any rare stash someone might be selling? From looking at pictures on KLOV and the net in general, i seems like there was many versions of MR DO! Could you post some photos of your cab/buttons so people can figure out what kinda buttons to look for?

I show both in a video I recorded yesterday: http://youtu.be/Rf824OdMtiw Title: Re: Mr. Do replacement buttons Post by: jammadude on May 21, 2014, 06:38:42 pm So mine is exactly like the one at the very beginning of your video, minus the hacked joystick :) I assume that's what you mean by red.

Yes, you could just swap them with orange Sanwa buttons as those were used in later cabinets. But the other option is to clean the old buttons, lube them with a little armorall and replace the leaf switches.

I will hold onto my Sanwa buttons in case. :) Thanks!

I won't work in a unwashed chassis. You end up filthy and the first even can get in the solder.
