So i searched the forum and couldn't find anyone else having this problem. My gift of gab shot registers about 20% of the time and causes the game to go into ball search. My ball popper works great and kicks it out, i have a feeling its the adjustment of the leaf switch and ball popper cap.

Does anyone know how to adjust that switch or have a picture of their working switch. Its the ball popper assembly (D-1135-1) and the Y leaf switch (A-11657). I think at this point it may be best just to get a new leaf switch, unless there is a way to get the current one back in shape .

Thank you in advance.

Quoted from killerrobots:

Does the switch work in test mode? If it is flakey there I would just recommend replacing it. I don't think they are too expensive.

Thank you for the reply.

Yes, and i can manually trigger the switch. It works fine, when putting the ball on the cap sometimes switch does not compress enough to make contact which leads me to believe its been adjusted too many times. I can clearly see its bent pretty good that's why I wanted to see the appropriate gap if anyone had a pick of one.

Quoted from killerrobots:

Here is a picture of mine. How is the white plastic piece? Is it binding at all?

This is a great pic. Thank you. My switch does look bent out of shape compared to yours. But the cap seems to be the issue and looks a little different. My cap barely moves at all, like almost not noticeable. I wonder if its bound up, does you cap move fairly freely?

Quoted from killerrobots:

Yes it floats on the solenoid rod but there is a spring in there I think. I would pull the solenoid assembly and make sure everything is free moving as it should be. There is a cross pin that may have moved on yours and bound up the plastic piece.

so I took mine apart and the white piece does not move up and down with the spring. Is it supposed to? It feels like the pin is locking it up and keep it from moving up and down.
