Quoted from mpdpvdpin:

Does anyone know where to source part 520-8418-00 motor controller board?

https://www.pinballlife.com/stern-motor-24-vdc-12-rpm-no-harness.html

EDIT: Sorry, I just noticed you're looking for the board. Hopefully, Stern will help you quickly. Good luck!

Quoted from mpdpvdpin:

Not so much concerned with bass as I am with overall clarity.

Get the kit from Dan at PinWoofer, and you'll be happy you did!

Quoted from cistearns:

The only thing I was looking for was a way to turn off the end of game trailer.

You can hit the start button and it will cancel the trailer! Of course, you then have to play another game...vicious cycle.

Quoted from mpdpvdpin:

The key is to get it lit while in multiball

The VUK ball save helps too...if your VUK has a tendency to lob balls down the outlane!

Quoted from Utesichiban:

Thanks for the tips. I disconnected all the connections on that blue node board this morning and reattached. Problem is still there.

You can take that board out of JP and put it into EHOH to see if the problem goes away. I had something similar happen with AIQ after a couple of plays. Swapping the node board confirmed the problem and made the game playable. Stern had a new node board to me the next day.

#8493 2 years ago
Quoted from Utesichiban:

That is probably my next step. I don't really want to go there and risk loosening a connector and creating a new issue with my JP but at this point, I'm not sure I have a choice. I'm thinking it is the board as well.

Yep, this is actually exactly what happened to me with AIQ. Send your serial number to your distributor/Stern, and they'll get a new one out. Take pics of the connectors as a reference when you do the swap(s). You'll get it fixed up in no time!

#8656 2 years ago
Quoted from Utesichiban:

Sorry but maybe I missed that. What dip switch settings would I need to adjust? I thought whatever adjustments it may need to make with the board switch were done automatically on the first boot up.

Please let me know and thanks for the heads up.

You shouldn't need to adjust the dip switches on the node you took from JP. You would've needed to adjust them if you swapped 8 and 9 from Elvira.

Quoted from Utesichiban:

Does anyone else get a lot of SDTM drains when the ball exits the pop bumpers in front of the house? My game is pretty close to dialed in now but that happens way too often still. Anyone have ideas on a modification or fix?

Change out the rubber to 1 1/4" per the post below. It helps immensely.
