Hi,

I've just started having an issue with the AC/DC bell. When the ball goes into the scoop behind the bell and pops back out, it gets stuck behind the bell, like it doesn't have enough weight to move past it. Ball search doesn't move the bell so it's a case of glass off to fix it.

Any ideas?

Your bell isn't moving freely enough.

Make sure the ball on the bell has not worked its way loose. Dab some blue locktite on it when you screw it back on tight.

It might also be fixed just by screwing it it by hand. Just twist it like you would, a lightbulb and it may do the trick.

Thanks, I'll take a look

Are the pinballs themselves magnetized?

it's not suppose to move past the bell. It's suppose to hit the back of the bell ball, and move over to the left under the ramp.

Ah so could be the machine isn't level? Cause on the way back, it hits the back of the bell ball and rolls sideways. Like a diverter, if I'm not mistaken.
So if the game is leaning right, maybe that's your issue?
