good afternoon. I have a new to me Police Force. The game starts up fine. I shoot a ball and if I run it up the right ramp the diverter is open and allows the ball to go up behind the police car where it sits and it gives me a "P" in police. I was under the impression the other ball should pop in the launch troth to be put into play but it does not and after 20 seconds or so the police car comes down and releases the ball I thought I had locked. The music sounds like it is getting stuck and restarts often also like something just isn't quite right. Any help would be appreciated as I can't wait to get this awesome game playing well again. -Chris

so i got home last night and cleaned all the old sticky grease from the diverter. that is smooth now. i ran a switch test and found the ramp to car switch and the ramp to wire switch were reversed somehow. i lifted the playfield and reversed the two connectors and now it works as it should. also fixed my sound issue by reseating a ribbon cable that wasnt pressed in all the way. thanks
