Faulty trough boards. Unplug both and plug them back in. If that doesn’t work, replace them, they are very inexpensive.

Faulty trough boards. Unplug both and plug them back in. If that doesn’t work, replace them, they are very inexpensive.
Quoted from Thehammyburgler:First post for me!
I have a similar problem where my ball drains and won't register until the machine searches for it(or I hit the flippers, which doesn't make sense to me). On inspection the switches seem to be working fine in registering the ball in the trough.
Also, there is sometimes a large time delay in the machine pushing a new ball into the launch lane. Probably a seperate issue but it is very annoying!
Any help is super appreciated! Thanks!
Most ball related issues on this era of games are due to the opto boards in the trough.
