Anyone have any idea. I pinned the connector and checked continuity. All but 2 were out and when I responded the connector I got half back.

Easy things first.
In the lower left corner of the big Power/Driver board, you will find five fuses.
Remove each of them and buzz them. They should be 5ASB fuses.

It was a connector. I have another issue as I need a picture of this area.

The ball is catching the metal and I assume the plastic should be in front of it.

Here are a couple of views. You could try to take a slow motion video with your phone if it is not clear how it is getting hung up.

Sorry. Thanks for the pics. I want the launch ramp to the metal. It’s not consistently hitting the drop target.

Anyone have a BSD that could take the same picture?

I just put mine on route or I would grab it. Sorry.

Thank you so much for this picture. Very difficult to find. I may need to bend the metal on mine.

Mine is having a similar issue. 10% of the time the ball doesn’t hug the rail to the drop target and hits the rubber just below it. I haven’t dug too deep into it. Only tried replacing the auto plunger rod, but that didn’t fix the issue.

Thanks @dr_nybble, I was having the same issue ever since I replaced the opto transmitter on the right side mist pocket. I remember re-installing the plastic shooter lane ramp and at the time I wasn't sure if the plastic shooter lane ramp should got on top (left side) of the metal ball guide or below (right side) it so I put it below it.

Since that time my ball launches have not been hitting the drop target. After seeing your post I adjusted the plastic shooter lane ramp to be on top of the metal ball guide (left of the metal ball guide instead of right of the metal ball guide) and now the ball is hitting the drop target consistently on ball launches.

I’m still struggling as the ramp is not sitting flush against the metal. It will also launch an extra ball on occasion. I think that’s an option or a chip.
