The movie was "Moving Violations", a 1985 comedy with "Where's the beef?" lady, Clara Peller (Aug 4, 1902 - Aug 11, 1987).
Yes I remember that movie too
The main role was Bill Murrays brother..Why's my back all wet?
Jennifer Tilly was in it also
Suspicious fuse holder repair at 34:50. Putting a new one in and replace the fuse with a correct one that isn't soldered
like it should be is a good idea to make it safe. You do a great job with logic solving and repairs Bob Ross 'er Ronnie.
Damn great video if I do say so myself.
Thank you sir we appreciate you watching!
That is a real movie. I saw it in driver's Ed in high school back in 1979!
I saw a similar one in drivers ed in about 1995, lol
"Blood on the Highway" was the real one. Moving Violations spoofed it, adding "flows red".
Perfect timing for these videos, I am working on a barn find restore of a CF. I'm learning a ton!!!
Thats why I love Ronnie videos, I am hobbyist tinker electronics, but I swear every video I learn something new or get a better idea of whats going on. :) Thanks Ron!
Your videos are soooo helpful , good idea doing those specific problems they help me solve heaps of issues, hello from australia,,, and never show your face, I like the KISS type mystery you got goin !!
Very cool warwickhand9722 we appreciate you watching man! See you on the next video!
My mind still boggles at the electro mechanical design of these old machines...
Ah that Bad Medicine lyric reference not many would probably notice. Old Timit did.
Thanks for staying up late. Love the bp, bp, bp that comes when you’re thinking about something. I always pay attention when I hear that cause I know an explanation of something is coming.
You’ve got it surrounded now.
I love schematic video's when i have trouble falling asleep lol
I can teach you a trick, to find a short in your play field lights. Get yourself a 4 ohm 10 watt resistor. Replace the fuse with this resistor. The resistor will limit the current to 1.5 amps on the 6volt circuit. Now use your volt meter and probe across the lighting circuit in a couple different places. The voltage will get lower the closer you are to the short. So keep measuring until you find the lowest reading and you be in the area of the short. FYI the resistor will get hot.
Oh yeah, you'll have to use a low volt range on your meter. Preferably a mV range if it has it.
Hay Ron at 3 am a woke up and remembered who says, I got you sucker. Mr T
I aint getting on no plane!!!
hahahaha I'm a big fan of Mr. T.
@@LyonsArcade Where's my van, we have a bloke at work that reminds me of Mr T🤣
Blood Flows Red on the Highway!!! That was hilarious Ron.
That movie was fantastic, very funny.
When looking for a shorted socket/lamp, if you can get yourself a current limited power source that you can ramp up the voltage to 6V. Then use a thermal camera to see what is heating up (you don't need to get to 6V...you aren't trying to light lamps, you are just trying to find the short).
Oh and the quickie formula for identical things in parallel is (resistance)/(number of identical things) so...if you have 4-Ohms and 20 of them, then 4/20 = .2
Moving Violations was absolutely hilarious!
WHY IS MY BACK ALL WET?
hahaha I forgot about that part
Looking good. I am glad you did not bleed to death. It looks like a long series. I hope you show, when you fix the flippers. Thanks for filming Ronnie see you on the next video.
"As the score motor turns" sounds like a 70's soap opera
As the score motor turns, so does the pins of our lives.
I remember watching Terminator 1 and RoboCop as a kid. The part where the Terminator cuts out his eye and the ED 209 shooting scene stuck with me!
Nice action
It's a very fun game!
Hey Ron - here’s a trick for you to find a short. With a good ohm meter, measure the resistance on your string on one end, it’ll be a low number. Now measure the resistance on the other end. It’ll be a low number too. However, whichever one reads a bit lower is an indicator that the short is closer to that end. It helps if you have a good low-range meter. Now measure in the middle of the string… should be in between the two readings if your shirt is close to one end.
This trick works because you are measuring the resistance of the wires on the playfield. It’s hard the first time you try it, but I’ve found shorts on PCB’s this way. It works great!
That's a slippery slope way to troubleshoot though. A lot of variables at play when trying to accurately measure low resistance paths like that...
An easier way with cheap equipment is to power it up using a current-limited supply. Then you can look at the voltage in different points of the circuit. As you start at the injection point and move away the voltage will go down, when the voltage levels off you have passed the short. For a pinball game like this a dim bulb tester should work well as the current limiter, although you may need to manually pull in the hold relay or similar to complete the circuit.
Enjoying this a lot. Regards
Thats is a Dam good video I couldn't resist watching 😂. Thank you.
For your resistance example, yes, it was 2 ohms for two parallel 4 ohm resistors. Formula is Rt=(R1+R2+Rx)/(R1*R2*Rx). For series resistors, just add them all together. Capacitance is exactly the opposite. But same formulas.
Just for a second, I thought maybe Ron, inspired by his new bobble head, was going to draw some happy little trees!
hahaha maybe next time!
Moving Violations was the movie you were thinking of, I believe.
That's the one!
I commented before the video was over. You named it halfway through.
You're not the only one to bleed on a pin: ages ago, i was on a ripper of a game on High Speed. One of my hands kept slipping on the flipper button no matter how much i wiped it on my pants. It wasn't until 15 minutes later i found out it was blood and not hot dog grease! My pants and shirt were streaked with it too
That's some hardcore pinball playin' there man!
The Need for Bleed.
Not exactly storming Iwo Jima, but I liked your old war story! 🤣
I hope you didn't stain the pin... Ron might have to clean it some day 🙂
Hey Ron!!
Hey Jason!
wasn't "Where's the beef" an old commercial and not part of a movie? 19:50 That is a rather cool approach to a variable resistor, they were pretty creative back then
Dad YES Son, you are going to play Sheriff domestic by Davemension!
From the creators of "Police Academy", it's 1985's "Moving Violations".
Movie is called Moving Violations (1985)
That's the one!
Ron's blood runs red on the playfield
Parallel resistance.
1/R total 🟰 1/r1 + 1/r2 … + 1/rn
The 32V fuse would almost certainly work just fine. There's a miniscule chance that a blown 32V fuse could arc across the blown gap in the element on a 50V line. Better to use a 50V or higher but of course but...
Ohms in a parallel circuit. If the components are all the same resistamce as in your case, just divide by the number of parallel components, so (3) 4-Ohm would be 1.333 Ohm, 4 would be 1 Ohm etc. The actual formula is to add the inverted resistances together so that:
1/Rtotal = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3...
1/Rtotal = 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4
1/Rtotal = 3/4
Flip it over
Rtotal = 4/3 = 1.3333
Same formula works for dissimilar resistances.
You are right, resistances in parallel have their conductances summed up. Same thing for inductors which have their admittances summed up. Capacitors get summed up in parallel and in series their elastance (!!, just looked that up) get summed up.
I think the 10 amp fuse may be too small. If those lamps are actually 4 ohms in a 6 volt circuit, you're going to be drawing 1.5 amps per lamp (I=V/R). It would only take seven lamps to blow it even during normal conditions.
FANTASTIC
YES IT IS CATPAIN
We had that problem with a different number bulb being inserted. 44, instead of 47..
i went to Google to see what the back glass looks like. It reminds me of Elton John's appearence in "Tommy" as the pinball champion Tommy beat.
The name of the movie is "Moving Violations."
Reminds me of the Ohio State Highway Patrol films they made us watch in driver's ed. They were horrific.
Glad you survived the hail... Who would have uploaded the final episodes of Captain Fantastic?
Not to be selfish about it but I'm worried if you've prepared for someone to wrap things up for your fans if a tree drops on you.
Also I have a German movement mantel (not a carriage) clock I inherited from my parents. Now I'll have to open it to see if it's a Hemmings Motor or what
If I die I have instructions to all my minions to make as much money as they possibly can so yes I suppose the videos would eventually get uploaded :)
@@LyonsArcade Hemmings Motor News? Nothing? ;-D
Parallel resistance in your drawing would be (1÷4ohms)+(1÷4)+(1÷4) etc..
Each resistance reading is divided by 1 then add all those values together to equal total resistance. Remember 47s and 44s have different resistance.
Right, it's called the 'reciprocal of the sum of the reciprocals' and is the reason that the axiom of "current follows the path of least resistance" is an accurate, albeit widely misunderstood, statement.
The path of least resistance is the path of all parallel loads. This is because each parallel load LOWERS the overall resistance. That's why all of the light bulbs that are connected in parallel light up together instead of just the one bulb which happens to have been manufactured with the single "path of lowest resistance" lighting by itself.
Moving Violations is the police movie your thinking about.
Tranished, really. I didn't know you could tranish something. Is that even a word from the 70s Ron. Love those typo,s.
you made a typo
Now folks that man bleed for this video, Come Come On Now! :)
Captain Fantastic needs new lights and a scoreboard tune-up?
Yodelayheehoo
Hello Lil Everette!
Holly fuck. A lot of relay. Age before integral circuits. Now all this jobs can be done by simpliest MCU like Atmega (Arduino) or simpliest industrial PLC.... Electroniсs evolution visible AS IS. Many years ago i was worked as field service technichian froo gambling equipments. I like to work with BALLY Game Maker machines - very good service manuals and good schematics.
Yeah, understand why it is hard to measure it. If you have 2 of the 4-ohm bulbs in parallel, you have 2 ohms. And if you have 2 more, that is 1 ohm. So yeah, you may read a dead short.
So yeah, one might assume polyurethane was applied, but yeah, maybe not.
Ronnie. You missed your calling. You should be teaching art classes.
I'm working on growing my 'fro out right now
What's wrong with it, Joey ....... ........
It’s broke!
We KNOW after gushing all that blood all over the pinball machine, you set up warning signed, dumped a whole bag of kitty litter into it to absorb it and marked the machine with a Biohazard sticker. You don't need to show that. That's okay.
European friends... 99.9% of the rest of the planet don't use inches. I'm offended. (Not really shh, I'm just bored)
I stopped caring what Europe thought about 1776
@LyonsArcade Europe wants you back, re-join the colonies.
You want to be cool like Canada and Australia. We love the leader.

Was Great on the piano.
Sucks on the organ.
I've heard that about him

Come on people...Elton John is a fantastic musician, and yes he is gay, but that's ok..it's legal nowadays...
