Looks fine to me

Funny how a full extension cord is less costly than an "appliance cord"

Good point about brands, maybe that's it. But I bet they both came from PRC (peoples republic of china) yes people, that is what PRC means on packages.
Talk about clever marketing!
Sorry, don't wish to derail this thread, please continue.

Wow, those do look nice!!

Have you adjusted the switch gaps, might just need some fine tuning?

I've not played this one, but is there a specific switch that awards this bonus? If so, obviously check that one first!

Once you start a game, thump the pf with your fist, see if you can recreate the 5k award, if so, i would think it is likely mechanical.
Then just check those specific switches for proper gap again.

Hmmm, perhaps bad diode / cap on one of them, but you said those are new?

Checked the switch matrix, see what's common amongst them?
Maybe that kick out and the 5k are in same column?
Damn gremlins! Lol

I think they just attach with roll pins.
