How hard a shot is it to get the ball back up to the upper playfield. I recently got everything working, and I am not sure if it’s still a weak right lower flipper or is it just not the easiest shot getting it back up? I thought for sure mine was still weak, i played it at another location and it was way harder..

I had asked about the difficulty gettting back up the ramp with the right flipper.
It’s kinda of a tuff question because I am not sure if it’s a skill issue or power of my flipper. I have a number head up the ramp and then roll back. There seems to be only a spot on the flipper that will bring it back, and it depends on how the ball is moving when it hits the flipper. Does this sound like how it plays on your games ? Or is it a pretty easy shot for you all Trying to decide if I should resolder my connections or not.
Thanks

Does the flipper coil need the plunger spring if it has the newer type return spring. ( it was on there ) Could that be zapping power

Does anyone have a photo of their lower right flipper coil and switches?
Mine has and eos and a second switch I thought it was for lane change but in the Manual it’s only a single switch in the diagrams

The upper right wire gate ( next to the “n” lane ), is that supposed to always allow balls to roll to the right, or does just depend how fast and the path the ball is going?

Just put on some metal mods pop bumper decals. Easy mod and I like the effect with the red chrome .

I have rule/ problem question. Sometimes when the spin is flashing the ball will cause the wheel to spin yet other times it enter and just gets ejected at the top with no wheel spin I would think if it ejects it the switch registers it’s there.??
Is this a problem or how it works

Ok then something else is turning on the spin lamp and it’s not supposed to be on. Will check diodes. Thanks

My spin lamp goes on with every lamp in that column. It wasn’t the diode , does that mean the driver is locked on?

There is a pinsider who has considered making wire forms that are needed for popular machines. He is looking for at least 10 people to be interested before he moves forward and decides. I know the wireform from the upper to lower pf is near impossible to find for bk2k, and I would like one. If interested please let him. He mentions his intentions on the mandlorian wireform thread.

loganpinball is his name

My machine has a tuff time at getting the skyway loop. The ball goes all the way around and then usually hits the post that holds the switch,and goes down one of the lanes. Has anyone had this occur, or know why it would?

I think allot of people would buy one. They are very hard to find intact
Hope it works out

I think it’s one of the coolest playing games from that era. The music is also very well done.
Hope you enjoy it as well as figure out a new wireform.

Your is missing the extra leg as well..
You may need that loaner ?

How hard is it push down when it sticks?
The return spring looks stretched, if it’s a light touch to get it down you could try a new spring or just add a second for a test.
But something seems magnetized if drops right when turn it off

Other things you Prb checked already but.
Eos opening all the way
Coil stop new
Sleeve bad
Flipper button cab switch spaced ?
I also had bad bushing do that even though not metal

Cabinet switch good ?
Tabs on eos not touching or bad solder joint?
Stronger Spring as a test

When you push it down how much pressure ?

Is the flipper bushing newish?

Scratch the bushing then… I missed what you said

My upper guide rail has always been bent.
It prevents the ball from returning to the flipper consistently. Does anyone have an extra ?

Having issue where in the middle
Of gameplay, no specific time, the game will kick out the remaining balls from the trough. Everything is good in diagnostics. I looked at the connector j8 , all the of switches, and it looks like there is corrosion on the connector. Could that cause the issue?

I am Curious if the left flipper is supposed to be strong enough to make it up the left ramp?
Mine has never been able to make it up consistently.

Great sound track and a very exciting sound/light display at the start of 3 ball multiball

When you shop, just make sure the upper flipper is strong. Its hard enough at times to make that ramp, but if the flipper is weak it makes it frustrating.

Yes.. it threw me the first time too. There is a little pin that attaches the upkick to the cylinder that goes into the coil. You need to tap it out.

The upper was harder for me, near the ramp. I had trouble getting access to some of the screws.

I decided to call the 1800# to order a black knight shirt. It asks you press 1 if over 50 so I though maybe I was on to something. But turns out it’s a medical hotline. Sadly no t shirt

Funny how playing machines goes in spurts for me. But I play bk2k more than Godzilla. I think the system 11s are more my style.

Was it working before you changed the coil and eos? Or was that part of the trouble shooting

Check the connector in the photo that has the new trifurcan pins and to the right the one with the yellow wires. Mine were burnt up

My spin light was always on, and it was diode on the socket .. one spot to check if you have not
