Hi All

Few issues with my Catwoman Edition..

First the ball keeps getting stuck between the gate under the turntable and the bat cave spinner- when spin it it looks like it is running high and the ball gets caught on the lip... had it apart, and looks like the metal bar under the plastic was bent a little on one side, straightened it out and better.

Now the bigger disk the turn table is mounted to.. I get a few air balls at the phone- looks like ball is hitting the raised lip, hitting the bat phone targets and springing back- air ball!!

Anyone else had this issue? Not sure if I can adjust the height of the turntable or not? Maybe a few washers on the screws where it mounts onto The playfield?

Thoughts?

Thanks

Hi All
Couple of issues with my my CW BM66

New issue.. the turntable didn’t turn from TV Set to bat phone.. kept saying shoot the phone, it was flashing but didn’t turn to make phone the shot to hit... only done this once.. when ball drained and player 2 was up turntable moved!

Biggest issue and it’s starting to **** me off is the turntable lock.. balls are escaping the lock. Some times the ball doesn't travel down the lock to the end switch, this kicks another ball out, but doesn’t put the post up- when the turntable moves round for next players turn the ball rolls out down left Outlane.
If you let ball drain then game thinks it is your ball and ends turn.

Also this sometimes happens when last switch is pressed- post seems sluggish to come up and balls again drain when turntable rotates..

Anyone had this issue? Could it a flakey switch? Or software bug?

When starting a game and turntable is at TV the post takes a good 20seconds to come up... should this be quicker?

#14239 4 years ago

Is/has anyone had trouble with the Batcave gate?
90% of the balls that have a direct shot bounce back, a lot of the time the get stuck between the gate and the Batmobile disk on the edge..

Long shot..

After a BM66 topper, either LE or the standard..

Why Stern didn’t run these again is beyond me.. left a HUGE amount of money on the table!

#15784 3 years ago

Has anyone enabled
The custom SLE speech in the menu..

Also, the bat light mod in the right corner, is it still only activated in attract and on the press
Of the start button

#15789 3 years ago
Quoted from JRM1:

Hi,
I need a favor from someone here, please. On my BM66, the spinner (to the left of the commisioner Gordon shot) fell off. I popped it back in, but the shot is not registering. I played with the switch test and if I poke around on the microswitch arm, it registers. However, when spinning the spinner, nothing happens. I think either part of the switch arm broke, a piece of the spinner arm broke off, the assembly got bent from a violent shot, or the switch is defective. I don't really know what the spinner and switch assembly look like when things are working normally. Would someone please post a few pictures of that area, most importantly the area where the arm of the spinner hits the leaf switch. Does the spinner arm go on top or under the leaf?
Also, my spinner is pretty beat up and the corners are pretty rounded. Does anyone sell replacements with decals?
Thanks!

Got a picture?

It looks like you spinner wire is wrong side of the leaf

#15821 3 years ago
Quoted from RetroGamerJP:

Hey guys ... I just setup a NIB Catwoman and was doing the switch test for the turntable ... it doesn't seem to want to go to switch position 63 which is the far right of the sequence in turntable diagnostics. it just ignores the button input when you get to that point. It goes up and down through the other three switche positions without issue.
I should note, it doesn't list any errors, i just wanted to test that everything rotated properly after unboxing... perhaps its not supposed to move to or light up position 63? Any chance one of you fine gents could try the test on your machine and report back?

Is it making a noise when you push button to try to get 63 to register?

Check under playfield look at bat tube and belt/wires to make sure nothing is wining round the turn table to stop it moving

#15823 3 years ago

Take a video?

#15830 3 years ago

Some quality mods there guys!

Looking forward to My Bat coptor coming and the 3D Catwoman cats.. they are the Bee’s Knees!

BIG thanks to docquest for giving up his LE Topper. Went above & beyond being helpful, even making me a wire harness to make my stand alone projector compatible with the topper.

Smooth transaction, arrived from US in 3 days! (UPS $500 shipping )

There is a Serious amount that goes into this topper.... I was going to take it apart and look to recreate a few.. but with all the work that needs doing, you would have to be Bruce Wayne to afford it!

#15906 3 years ago

I have one of the toppers made by a Pinsider that I will not be Keeping..

I am looking to get a few bits 3D printed
To make it look a bit better..

Or can have as it was made -

It was $400 + shipping.
I will take $300 + shipping

Thanks

#15910 3 years ago

Quoted from rodcom:

Batman 66. Today had a broken rubber on the turntable, took it apart replaced all of the parts. When I started up the game - the turntable gets stuck as it moves to and from the “last” position where the spinning bat mobile is in the front. Lifted play field and can’t find anything blocking turning. Weird thing when I run the turntable test with the play field up - it works. Only down does it get stuck so gravity must be part of the issue.
Have a video if anyone wants to help and “see” the issues. Thanks in advance.

Is the “Bat Tube” secure? If is not fixed to the brackets underneath it can cause problems with the cable passing through it.. just a thought..

Well G&R LE ordered.. this means that a game has to go... Don’t worry it’s not BM66..

But I do have a Villan Topper or the BM66 Prem/ Catwoman Edition that I may sell on.

PM if interested

#16213 3 years ago

MASSIVE THANKS to docquest for going out of his way to get me the 2020 Hallmark Penguin & Batmobile, and sending it across to the UK.

docquest you make Pinside a better Place!

Thanks again

#16227 3 years ago

I ordered the limited edition blades from LSOG
When they arrived they were the standard ones.

Apparently they got them shipped direct from
stern

#16230 3 years ago
Quoted from pinballaddicted:

There are some great people on Pinside and a little gratitude goes a long way. This is just another great example of how good people can be.
Every time we have an issue and I cannot resolve it myself, I go to Manufacturer, Distro then Pinside. Pinside outperforms the other two every time. Most times Pinside has put me well on the way to resolution before anyone else (except Chas RIP) even bothers to respond. Help on here is outstanding.

I will help any fellow pinsider out, if I can. More than happy to help get parts over from Europe if they don’t send to US themselves.

I wish I had a banner for each game I owned. I would hang them on the wall across from my games. Stern never did sell these, they were promo items?

Ways round that.. not original but reprints

Quoted from thundergod76:

Are those full size?

Had them made to size 218cm x 73cm so that the banners stretched to the roof joists I wanted them too, and thinned a little so I could fit 5 in.

If you look you can see that the GB banner.. I had the Pro model replaced with the LE model which I have

Quoted from jfh:

Yeah, Stern not re-engineering that is probably the biggest problem with the game. Your wire form is a true work of art. Sad that you were ghosted on the project.
And while Thunderbird had some good points on Catwoman, the LE/SLE are indeed in different leagues because of true rarity, topper with the custom Batphone callout by Adam West for original owners in the SLE the most unique limited feature ever.

Before Insider connect - the BM66 Code was not specific to models. I’m running BM66 SLE code in my Catwoman.
Not sure how to change the name though.

#17624 1 year ago

Are you sure it’s a NODE 10 board!?
The late, & great Chas from Stern parts- I emailed him about the BM66 SLE/LE topper. He gave me the parts- when putting parts in at Marco.. that is Node 10.

The turntable board is a different number
