While I'm posting up a storm today, this seems like a small thing that was overlooked. To remove the castle playfield you have to disconnect 6 (I think) connectors under the playfield. Then, once you pull the mini playfield up you have to remove two "wires" from the bottom of it, one is a simple LED connector plug, easy enough and enough slack. The other, purple and black solid wires, goes to 3 hard to reach circuit boards (daisy chained) under the mini playfield. You have to get your fat fingers in to some tiny places to remove the connectors. A simple 2 wire molex under the main playfield would have completely removed the need to disconnect these 3 connectors under the mini playfield. I know this pin is complex and working on it will be a pain in that way but this sort of seems like a no brainer... almost everything else has a quick disconnect molex under the main playfield. I added it to mine, (shown in pic) getting pissed off every time I needed to disconnect them. Why JJP, why?
