    Hey guys, Hoping someone can provide some direction with the following issues that I am having.
    1. BOP just started ejecting 2 balls in the shooter lane, through switches and shooter lane switch all look good.
    2. The Head seems to get "confused" from time to time and will be on the incorrect face for what's going on.
    3. Can't get into test mode, as I try to activate testing for switch and such, it kicks me right back to adjustment menu so I can not run any diagnostics.

    Thanks guys, cheers.

    Quoted from Swainer80:

    I would check the ribbon cable on the bottom.of the WPS mpu. My bride head occasionally gets confused and I can tell there has been some alkaline damage from a prior battery leakage. Perhaps it's just a poor connection ribbon cable on your case.

    Ok, I'll try to reseat that ribbon cable as a good starting point for the head.

    Quoted from PinballManiac40:

    Post a picture of the MPU board so it can be checked for alkaline damage.

    The MPU looks good, but I can post a picture. Batteries are mounted off the board.

    Quoted from Cheddar:

    The face on my bop would get confused because one of the eye switches was getting triggered by the eyehole as the face rotated. Make sure you aren't triggering as it rolls past

    That makes alot of sense, if an eye hole or a face switch is being triggered that could cause it to eject two balls in the shooter lane too i guess,,, what do you think?

    UPDATE###Board damage...UGH
    Upon further review , the board looks to have damage to it. I just got the game about a month ago batteries were off the board when I got it and I didn't look closely at the board but now I see it must have had previous damage... and now the game will nnot boot. What's my best course of action here? Try to clean it or get a new MPU?
