Can someone post a picture of how the speakers are wired? I unclipped the wires going to the backbox speakers, and don't recall the orientation of the red/black wires.

You're the best Rens!

Round 2 of questions. I've installed .57 on my game. When I go into the software settings and choose .57 (from .55), it goes straight into the ubuntu desktop. I followed the instructions mentioned earlier to edit the version text document back to .55, and it successfully reverted to old code. Any idea why I can't use .57? Should I try and reinstall the code?

EDIT/Update - I deleted the installed .57 code and reinstalled the update. Selected .57 and everything is working great now!

I noticed that I get frequent ball hang-ups on the mini playfield where the plastic 'loop ramp' meets the wood. I've tried adjusting the screws, but it seems I can't make this area flush. In reviewing some previously posted pictures of other machines, it seems I'm missing the ramp flap. Was this addressed in fairly recent builds (July 2021) like my game with a different design, or should I work to obtain a proper ramp flap? Picture below:

Quoted from Rensh:

Only older builds have a rampflap.
The end is supposed to be flush, is it to low or to high? If to low, there should be a plastic transparant spacer below it to bring it to proper height. Is this perhaps missing?
I have currently also a Mpf with same design eg without rampflap. In a few months of playing I still have to see the first ball holdup there so it can be done.
The other complaints cpr9999 is talking about were, to the best of my knowledge, not for this position.

The ramp is lower than the wood. I don’t see any spacers, but I suppose I can figure out a solution without them. It’s minor, just wanted to ensure I wasn’t missing a ramp flap.

Quoted from Rensh:

The spacer is a piece of transparant plastic in the shape of the blank wood so isn’t very obvious to see.
See attached picture where you can see the edge of the plastic spacer. Let me know if it’s there or really not. Thnx. [quoted image]

No plastic spacer on mine. There must be a less elegant solution as I wouldn’t want to bother and inconvenience the team to ship out such a small part to the US. I will brainstorm!

Any tips for installing side blades on TBL? The clearance seems super tight on the sides, and in all honesty, I've never installed side blades on a normal stern/BW. Any tips/tricks/etc. would be appreciated!
