I am hoping someone can help me figure out why the Genie lower drop targets are intermittent. Most of the time they do what is in the video. They try to reset but recess. Occasionally they pop up but struggle power wise. I have checked the coil and the action could not be smoother. At times it pops but mostly flops. Even the upper targets seem to have lost their pop but they do work. I replaced the PS within the last year and have new Wi-Numpf CPU and Driver. Everything else on the Genie works great. I would be grateful to anyone who can help and hope to get some feedback. Thanks

Come on man, nobody with a GS1 has any idea where I can look up stream that would cause this coil to act this way? I am one of the few who threw $5 bucks towards this site and cause. How do I get a refund? I thought people were here to help others.
