Quoted from Tuna_Delight:

I recently had two bowling pins (#'s 2 and 4 positions) snap off within a couple weeks of each other after approx 6 months of play. I've purchased replacements and extra pins from DP, but they are taking forever to arrive so I decided to try gluing the pins back together as another TBL owner told me he had done this.
I've added reinforcement glue around the neck of the two glued pins as well as the three other pins In the two affected rows to hopefully strengthen them somewhat against further breakage. I'm reinstalling them today; we'll see how well they hold up.

Quoted from Nepi23:

It seems that the ball has found a nice resting place for itself in my game. Right after the edge of the playfield protector and before starting to go to the curve on the right. Please see the pics. People with similar problem, how have you fixed this?
It seems that the screws are a bit too much up, but they do not seem to move further down. I put some Badger frisket decal on top there, but it does not seem to do much good.

Quoted from Rensh:

FYI: have holiday from my day job and leaving this Wednesday on a short holiday till next week Friday.
So if a service response takes longer as usual sorry for this. Expect to check mail and forum regular but 1) my wife needs attention to and 2) I will leave my laptop and TBL at home
Ryan air doesn’t accept my TBL as Handluggage

Quoted from Rensh:

Does it rattle in open position? Than parking targets likely need some adjustment
With rel 057 the car stepper test nowadays clearly mentions the name of the switch activated to easy to identify.
Let me know how you get along.

Quoted from Rensh:

This is a new one for me. The axis is quite a thick one so will not bent easily. Did you make a picture how it looked eg at which spot it bent? Quite surprised frankly speaking this happened.

Quoted from adam12hicks:

Hi there! My bunny plastic is broken off at the top and cracked on the bottom. I'd like to protect these, but also purchase a replacement. Are there replacements available anywhere?
Thank you!

Quoted from cpr9999:

They need to be hot glued in place.

Quoted from KSP1138:

I had this issue early on with mine. The problem is the center post of the bowling alley launcher binding against the playfield. It would go down, but struggled to come back up, and until it did the ball would keep falling through and getting fed back up again.
I don't remember exactly what I did, but it involved adjusting the post a bit so it wasn't rubbing on the playfield, and I sprayed a little silicon lubricant on it too. They was several hundred plays ago and I haven't had a problem with it since. There's some good pictures in Rens' support guide.

Quoted from Flash71:

Flippers adjusted! I’ve got another question. When I go into the test modes all the other tests function properly but the solenoid tests don’t do anything when I select them. I’m I missing something ? I tried with the coin door open and closed but can’t seem to get any solenoids to fire in test. I go to flippers, select left or right flipper and when I press the menu button down it highlights but that’s it. Am I doing something wrong ?

Quoted from dbarker:

Love my new Lebowski.
New Lebowski and left ramp diverter goes down as should but wont go back up untill manually lifted. Seems its not getting signal to go back up.
1. No inpingement it will freely go up and down manually
2. Switches for dude work fine
3. Opto onto ramp works.
4. All plugs on board seated
5. Nothing visual i can see
For further clarity during test menu for left diverter solenoid it also on goes down and does not return back up unless manual lifted.
Does anyone have any ideas on what else i should check?

Quoted from flynnibus:

Anyone have trouble with the bowling pin release binding up?
Pin moves up and down fine when manually pushing (to the bottom out position).
But when the coil pulls it down.., it stays down. Pushing it around will free it up. But I can’t make it stick manually pushing it. Even when the whole alley was out and really trying to make it fail. The plunger does move around a bit in the bracket. Is there supposed to be a bushing at all at this bracket?

Only thing else i can think of is the sleeve or stop is trashed in some way… but this coil gets do little use I would not expect that.

Quoted from flynnibus:

ha.. I was theorizing that exact same way.
Have you had any problems with the sleeve breaking?

Quoted from CALencio:

Yes very helpful.
Should I be able to make the dude ramp on the left flipper “back hand”? Would that be a good gauge if the flipper strength is set right?
The character start - should that be hit from a trapped ball or rolling ball?
Thanks for the help here
