Hi guys my Family guy at each ball at start of game and game play the death target pops up 3 times ,is that right or not ? If not what do you guys think is going on with it any ideas .

Thanks

The death target should come up at the beginning of each ball. Sounds like yours is having trouble staying up...? Check under the playfield for anything that doesn't look right.

Yea it pops up 3 times every time and though out the game play it will do it again ,I will look and see if there is anything that doesn't look right .

Thanks

So it goes up/down/up/down/up/down within a few seconds?

Perhaps the drop target switch is not properly gapped?

Yes that's right 3 times up down up down and up down at each ball start

Don't think it's a switch(could be wrong)
I think it's an opto and coil. Maybe the lip of the drop target is worn?

Update ,I found the coil wire almost grounding out on the metal so I fixed that and I cleaned the opto ,and now it's working like it should thanks guys
