Quoted from shelby1000:Is there a way to test the coil for the elevator drop target? I went into the menu but didn't see one for that coil or if I did I didn't recognize it. Also does anyone know if there is coil strength setting for the drop target coil? I'm thinking probably not but I inspected the catch ledge on mine and it seems to be fine and not broken but still will not stay up when I start a game. I can push it up by hand and it locks fine. If there is a coil strength setting maybe it is too low to lock the target in the up position?
There is a drop target test in the service menu. No coil strength setting though. I didn't recognize that my ledge had issues until i unscrewed it... It broke all apart. My ledge was broken from overtightening from the factory.. I had to get a new ledge and put a small washer on each side to push the ledge out some. I spoke with Stern support to find out that lots of people are having the issue the the drop target. So with the new ledge and small washer - no further problems with it going up/down.
