Hi what is the best way to change the start button bulb as Ive notice that there is a metal plate covering over the button then u have the coin mech in front plus what is the name of the part that sits under the mech that diverts the money

[stewy]

Not had much to do with Astra's (only my car haha). I'm sure when I done one I removed the metal plate that you are talking about, sure it's just a case of whip two screws out and you're into it???

I've never seen either building material attached to a mech, fortunately!

Do you know Brian I was about ready to agree with you and say that I have no idea where I got "sorter" from and that I must have been having a "blond moment"... then today while I was stripping an MPU5 cab I read the instructions on the mech bracket - which referred to the "sorter".

So, in summation; Lol.

Nah not really - they are universally known as separators as you say - I was just having one of those moments! ops:

Best way to do this is undo the 4 or 5 screws holding the belly glass frame on and then once off you have gained access to behind the mech. Alternatively if careful pop off the lens cap with a flat head screwdriver and use long nose plier to pull out and replace bulb. Have done that a few times with sucess! lol
