Good afternoon everyone! We just joined the club! Received our machine Wednesday and set it up today.

Only issue I have so far is the car will not swing out, it makes a fast pace clicking sound. Anyone have some advice on this one?

Quoted from cpr9999:

Cherry switch behind it needs adjustment.
Take the black roof off to access the switch.

Thank you for the reply CPR9999! I've adjusted leaf switches but can't recall cherry switch adjusting. Can you elaborate on that switch adjustment by chance?

I love your mods for Lebowski and will be putting an oder in tomorrow.

Quoted from cpr9999:

Simple bend of the switch rod….
It is located here….[quoted image]

Pretty sure that fixed it. I took the roof off and then located the switch. I bent the switch a little more forward, the car is now registering closed.

Found this in the cabinet right side towards the back. Anyone have any ideas on where this came from as it's obviously longer than the playfeild is thick.

Quoted from Rensh:

Looks like a screw which is used to secure the MPF. There are three of them. Thinking of other possibilities but that’s the first one which comes into mind.

Thank you for the suggestion, I will take a look at the MPF when I get home this evening.

I was playing our Lebowski this weekend and I noticed that the diverter on the left ramp has a good amount of side to side slop in it. The diverter has hung up a few times on the ramp trying to drop because of this side side play. Is this normal and if not how can I correct this issue? I read through the entire service manual and see nothing about the diverter.

Quoted from sd_tom:

The very first TBLs had a different diverter flap than they do now. What's your serial #?

I am at work so do not have my serial # but I just received our machine about two weeks ago so it's a newer one.
