Your game doesn't know what in heck a diverter is. It does know switches.
Open the diverter and roll a ball through. The first switch the ball goes over is the issue. My guess would be the switch arm that comes up through the playfield isn't centered in the slot and may be rubbing on one side. If so it acts slow and the game ignores it in game play. If that is okay, it may need adjusting so when a ball comes through it hits the switch good every time.
The error will go away with game play.
