I am just wondering if anyone has had this same problem.

Suddenly the “Un-happy hour” mode starts up by itself and then goes completely ballistic “ghost” registring hits non-stop.

If you've had this same issue or know what's causing it, please let me know.

Thanks

I'm going to mess around with it a little bit and see.

It's usually not hits registered

Working properly

Or ghost machine gun scoring!!

Do you have any clue where people drilled into the ramp?

Thanks for the tip

Hi folks,

I'm still getting grief from the right ramp (upper right Opto) registering ghost hits at the rate of machine-gun fire!

Can someone instruct me where in the settings I can go to test this opto in the test settings, so I don't have to start a game to test it.

Thanks

Unfortunately, I'm still having this issue but worse now, it has gotten to the point where the game is unplayable once “un-happy hour” mode starts up.

Every single shot I take sets off the Opto (machine-gunning) no matter if I hit the ramp or not. When I do hit the right ramp it seems to register at least 5-7 hits at the speed of light multiple times.

I've drilled larger holes in the ramp as suggested by other insiders due to the optos originally not connecting and working. (I did not accidentally drill into the opto). (Is this a bad set of optos?)

At this point, I guess I'll have to reach out to stern I'm not sure what else I can do here.

I'm wondering if someone else has had this exact problem and how was it fixed.

**Every single shot on the playfield sets off the right ramp opto during “Un-happy hour” mode**

Alright HOH crew,

This is what I noticed that’s happening when “Un-happy hour” mode starts on my game.

Every single time I flip the flippers during that mode it registers on the screen as if I made a ramp jackpot shot even if I didn't shoot a ramp shot or even hit the ball.

So the faster I hit the buttons the faster ghost hits register, and points are added to the screen as the glasses keep clinging together. (it's tied to the flipper buttons somehow).

I knew this sounds strange but I'm guessing this is some type of wiring issue.

Any insight regarding this issue will be appreciated

I may try to reinstall the firmware, the game worked fine for months then this started happening a few weeks ago.

Thanks, Monk, I'll try this out!!

I gave it a few slaps around the playfield and the:

Right Ramp Exit Opto (71 / 9- SW-6) kept registering hits.

I made sure the ramp was tighten and that opto was screwed in tighter prior to the test because I suspected the problem was coming from that area.

I'll have to find a way to stop the optos from vibrating so much, I'm not particularly sure on the best way to go about doing that. Unless they just need to be replaced.
