Banzai Run issues

Tinkering around with my banzai run I just picked up. Have a couple issues that I wanted to see if there were quick fixes for.

First one is the ball lifter. Most times, it will drop the ball to upper playfield as normal. Sometimes, it will hold the ball at the top, and then move all the way down, all way up again, then back down and drop the ball back on other lower playfield... so the magnet never lets it go. Wondering if this is a software issue (it has proto ROMS in it) or something else)?

Second issue is also upper playfield related. When the up kicker served the ball to the
Mini flipper, it often bounces before the mini flipper and rejects back down to the kicker. This happens very frequently, and sometimes takes 10 or so kicks to serve properly. The kicker has plenty of strength, but it rejects after the bend way too frequently. Any advice on that adjustment to make it reliably serve to the mini flipper?

Thanks!
Mike

Like the switch at the top that lets the game know to drop the ball has an issue ?

Maybe.... but it hits each time in switch test. Wish I knew maybe it needs to actuate the switch for a longer period of time?

No issues in test report. I upgraded the ROMS to L3 so let’s see if that fixes the switch logic. So far zero malfunction
