Question
Hello,
  One of my customers recently aquired an American shuffle board that is in his words an antique that he wants me to get working. The question I have is where can I find a wiring diagram for this game? I am going to his house today and will get pictures and model #. Any info you can help me with will be great.
Thank You
John Clements
