Quoted from Sk0r:

Ok so according to the manual, the elevator stopping past the index opto is normal behavior.
I discovered this morning that the claw does work. For some reason, I was always using the trigger upper buttons at the beginning of the claw sequence (which stops the sequence on my DM, see second part of this message). It turns out that when using the cabinet buttons or “lower” trigger buttons, the claw moves freely. No issues there, that’s a relief.
Unfortunately, the whole thing is acting up when it comes to dropping the ball: it only works when I drop the ball above the right hole (Chase Simon). If I position the claw above another hole, using the handle buttons to release the ball results in the sequence “freezing” with the ball stuck on the magnet. I need to investigate the behavior more as I could only test for a few minutes this morning, but if any of you have an idea what the issue could be...
Could you confirm that the right handle button (circled one) should register as “Ball Launch” in switch test? It seems to match with what’s in the manual but I prefer to double check.
Also, the left flipper opto PCB is missing, replaced with a leaf switch by the previous owner. Everything registers fine in test mode (flipper switch and EOS), but maybe it could be linked with the weird claw behavior.

Thanks Beechwood! I will try the hold technique later today.
What’s the procedure to drop the ball from the magnet? Using both top buttons? Or just use any of them?</blockquote

New to the forum and owner of DM for about 5 years. It's been good for the most part other than a new opto board for the croyo claw. Now the underground, the top sink hole and the retinal scan all stopped working at the same time. THey get stuck in their respective spots. When the ball search is initiated all the balls will eject so I believe the solenoids are all working. Anyone know if these features are linked in any way? I did notice a couple of wires hanging loose under the playing field but can't exactly see where they would have been attached as they have a very short length (2-3 inches). I've attached some photos of the area for reference. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance![quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Thanks! That's what I was thinking but wanted some additional feedback. I'll look at the schematics as well to verify. I have an old style soldering iron. Is there one I should look to get that won't cost me an arm and a leg?
Cheers.

Well still having the damn reset issues during multi ball. I ordered the plug in reset thing from Marco. Pretty sure it's the same thing as the Kahr. Even if this works I think I'm still gonna order in some new boards down the road.
