The kicker on my ES VUK shoots with such force that the vibration causes the states too split apart (about 2-3 kicks and they are as separated as when the divide is activated) and the ball on occassion slides out of one of the 2 lanes onto the playfield. Any thoughts on how to tame this thing?

See if you have the factory coil installed.

Good point. Will do

#4 10 years ago

Correct coil confirmed. Other ideas?

On mine the states mechanism underneath the playfield came loose and did the same thing.Check where the adjustment nut is and tighten it up.

Tightening the adjustment nut corrected for the states from drifting open when the shaker motor was on, but didn't stop the vibration effect when the VUK was activated.
