Quoted from chubtoad13:Does anyone have custom cards for their getaway?
Forgot where I downloaded them from but a search on google should help. Here are the ones I downloaded a few years back. Enjoy!

getawayprice.jpgQuoted from Geocab:For anyone who has done the Checkpoint key switch mod, do you have photos of how you connected the switch? I finally got my hands on one of these and there's a diode that's between two contacts that's throwing me off.
Don't know if this is the exact key switch you purchased but here is the instructions for the one I bought.
Key Mod instruction sheet.pdfFinally got my Getaway 100% working. Burnt connector was fixed a little while ago and now the supercharger is fixed. Did another factory reset so hopefully the scoring glitch will be fixed. Played a pretty good game and got a legit 720m.
Glad you got your Getaway all fixed up! But really after your fix, 720 million? I've owned Getaway for over 5 years and have barely cracked 300 million on 3 ball. Sure your scoring on Getaway is working correctly? Seems over the top!!

Quoted from SUPERBEE:Can someone please show me the inside of their Getaway cabinet showing how the playfield hinges hook onto the cab ? Mine are off and cant figure it out.
Hi Superbee, Hope these pics help. Let me know if you need anything else. Good Luck!

I'll back MustangPaul on his comment! Just got mine yesterday here on the West Coast. Fast shipping and great looking sticker!! Thanks again Allen!!
I've read several posts on this Getaway Club thread regarding the rear lift ramp not working properly. My lift ramp is staying locked in the up position. After going in the switch edge test the switch is working properly. When going into the lift ramp test, the large solenoid engages which is for the up position but I do not hear the small coil fire for the release: SM1-28-900-DC. When I manually release the plate from the the notch it does position the ramp down. So there is no apparent binding between the shaft, ramp and solenoids.
I'm guessing it's an issue with the SM1-28-900-DC coil. All soldering looks clean to it's lugs. Not familiar with this type of coil since it's so small. Because of it's location it's hard to determine whether the coil operates with a mini plunger or it's a magnet pulse that trips the plate to the down position.
Anyone that has knowledge or has experienced this particular issue on their Getaway, I would really appreciate some feedback.
Thanks in advance!
Quoted from tiltmonster:So when you run the T:Test, T14:Ramp test, the ramp fails to move up and down?
When running the ramp test, the up coil engages for the up position but fails to drop down. I can manually trip the notch plate to make the ramp drop to the down position. I'm not hearing the smaller coil engage which trips the release plate. Because of the location of the assembly underneath the play field, this one could be a tough one to trouble shoot!!
Quoted from tiltmonster:Hmmm... yeah, working on that sucks but that's pinball. I'll look at mine later to see what could be causing that to happen.
Thanks tiltmonster, any guidance would be much appreciated!
Remember with the NVRAM installed, the date and time only advances when the machine is turned on. When off, the date and time will not advance until it is rebooted. At least that's how mine works with the NVRAM installed in my games.
I pulled my Power Driver Board due to a leaking capacitor. Of course in a hurry, I did not label the IDC/ molex connectors when pulling them out.
I might struggle putting back all the connectors in the right spot on my Getaway. Could someone please post a few pics of the connectors on your PD board (A-12697-1), so I have some sort of reference. I would really appreciate it!!
Thanks so much, Have a great Memorial weekend!

Me too! Great bunch of guys on this Getaway thread! Thanks to ccbiggsoo7 for the great pics! This should cover more then what I was hoping for!! Thanks again, enjoy!!
Quoted from tiltmonster:I agree 110% and if those pics don't help, here's one I took many years ago when I installed a PinLed Power Driver Board (Franks Famous battery mod after that..)
Only thing I'd say is repair, replace that 120 molex and pin set
Good luck![quoted image][quoted image]
Thank you tiltmonster! Always happy to have reassurance come board hook-up.
Quoted from ruzeo:Happy Memorial Day Getaway owners![quoted image]
Yes, Happy Memorial Day to all! Especially those that have served and those that have paid the ultimate price protecting our Nation!!
Memorial Day (resized).jpgQuick question Getaway members... I just received my XPin DMD 4096 display for Getaway. The instructions states to remove the -100/-100V fuse. I'm
guessing it's either F-601 or 602 on the DMD Controller board, but not sure. Hopefully someone that might know will chime in!
Appreciate the help and this Getaway Club thread!!
Getaway.JPG.pdfQuoted from Jigs:Start with adjusting your habitrail at the slingshot plastic. It can be seen in your pic. Adjust it to the middle position and see how it performs. Currently it it to the far right and causing a log jam.
This was the exact problem I had. I could hear the coil fire to release a ball but the disappearing post got jammed against the wireform. Simple adjustment at the slingshot adjusting it over slightly did the trick!
Quoted from peteyhugs:I'm going to need to replace the rear ramp flap(the one that goes up and down). Where can I get one?
Thanks in advance,
Pete
You can cut and make your own. I ordered a sheet of blue spring steel from Steve at PBR for my Checkpoint ramp. Traced the old ramp flap, cut and reinstalled!
Quoted from golfergordy:Here's a followup to my post #11435 of 3-months ago regarding trouble with the rotating dome light reflector. The reflector would often hesitate a bit before it started rotating, and occasionally not rotate at all. I thought I fixed it by unplugging and replugging all the wire connectors from the power board to the rotator motor, but that fix only worked for a few weeks and the problem started up again. I now recently replaced the #1156 bulb with an LED bulb of 3 watts (I think I read somewhere that the OEM bulb was 9 watts). Both the bulb and rotator motor are on the same circuit so more current is now available for the motor and it now works great. There's no hesitation during startup and it has run smoothly every time during the 50 or so games since the LED bulb went in. Hopefully I won't be discussing this matter again.
That's great information on your beacon light golfergordy! May I ask where you sourced your 3 watt LED bulb? Think I'll give it a go, as I've experienced the same issue on my beacon light too.
Thanks in advance!!
Quoted from AlexRogan84:Looks really sharp. What decals did you go with? Link to where you bought them?
I agree, would like to know where you bought your decals as well. Looks like you bought new side rails too.
Quoted from hawknole:It gets screwed in under the rear glass channel with 2 of the same bolts that hold in the channel, pictured below with a variation of decal[quoted image]
Did you fabricate that metal piece to accommodate your decal? As I have not seen that on most Getaways.
HS2.jpg.pdfJust looked online and it does appear on other Getaways, so mine is missing since buying it 10 years ago. First time I've noticed since owning it. If I had the metal piece I would have most likely bought your decal. Nice job!
