I'm having a few issues with mine.
1) The ball trough switch for A in W A R isnt registering. What is the common failure with these, so I know what to look for? **Fixed**
2) I have multiple lights staying on 100% of the time, for example 20k and 50k points in the lightning wheel. What causes this? Bulb swaps didn't change anything.
Quoted from NextoPin:It sounds like the lamp matrix. Go into the diags and goto single lamp test. Document all the lamps that are on in addition to the lamp tested. Check the back of the manual for the lamp matrix chart and you should be able to determine what row or column is having the problem. Report back and we can assist, the lamp matrix on mine was borked when I got it, turned out to be a resistor pack on the CPU board, but that's not as common as some other issues.

Row 2 is my trouble area.
Quoted from Barakawins1:Had the same problem. I rubbered the BK2000 and found that placing a rubber on that post prevents the ball from making it around.
Removing it and the ball goes around fast. My BK2000 is an earlier version with older plastics. I noticed that the newer BK2000's make it around the loop a lot more than the older ones. That's a fact. Had a few of these over the years. The way the metal scoops is curved makes a difference.
A question for all.. I have my playfield pitched at 6.5 degrees. What pitch do you have yours set at?
newb question but how do you measure your pitch?
Oh no! Yesterday I went to play a game for the first time in a few weeks (I haven't been home) and the BK2K is down. It powers on, and everything is lit up, I hit the start button and just before it shoots the ball out to the kicker lane the game just shuts down. The display goes black, the playfield lights shut off but the backbox is still on.
What is goin on?

Fixed it. The drawbridge was either hanging up or slipping. I fiddled with it a little bit, it's back on track and the game plays great.
Macro and Bay Area are both "sold out" of Magna Save decals.
I'd like to throw a decal over mine and then mylar it, to stem the wear.
Where can I get one? Anybody know?
I found one through google image search @ Little Shop of Games in FL but I want to make sure it's a decent color match.
Quoted from xTheBlackKnightx:Its the same decal, quality, and color match.
Awesome, thanks
