Had my machine now for about 3 weeks. The Slimer mech would only count shots that were straight on for the most part and that wasn't bad. Last night for some reason, it wasn't even registering those. It had to be the perfect shot. I took off the top cover plate on Slimer, loosened the 2 nuts under it, moved the black block to the middle of the ovaled out holes, tightened the nuts to hold it in place, and installed the cover back on. It loosened up Slimer and now it registers pretty much any hit on Slimer. Thought I would share in case anybody else has this problem. Mine was a NIB purchase, so it has the updated Slimer mech on it.

I set mine to go off at 8:00 P.M., since I will never stay up till midnight to play it, and it works. Did you try setting the clock/time forward a few hours or so to see if it works?

#4192 5 years ago

If I remember correctly, I would set my time to 5-10 minutes before midnight and start playing, but nothing would happen. The next day it would work. Seems like it needs 24 hours after setting clock to work. That's if i remember correctly, it's been awhile.

Quoted from seenev:

I'm guessing it's a common issue but I haven't found it exactly yet searching... My slimer is registering hits randomly when he isn't hit with the ball. Any suggestions?

Sounds like it is just out of adjustment. Here is what I did to mine when it was to tight and not registering almost any hit. Been working fine ever since.

Quoted from gk_usa:

Okay, I hope everyone understands my dilemma. Was playing a game and this comes on to the playfield and slides down to the bottom. I wish I could go back and watch carefully where it came from but all I know is it landed on right side about where right orbit starts and then slid down playfield.
I looked and search through entire manual looking for key words "black" and "spacer" and nothing matched what this is.
Someone please help me figure out where this goes or where the heck it came from...aaaaaa[quoted image]

Looked at my pro and think this is where your post came from. Actually goes upside down on ramp, not on play field. Kinda hard to find.

Quoted from gk_usa:

Awesome! Yup, no black spacer in mine. Which means it fell onto playfield above terror dog target.
So it just floats? I don't see how it keeps ramp up above plastic below it since you don't necessarily connect the ramp to the plastic below that covers playfield. In essence what the hell does it do? Ha.
Second, can I send you guys money for a beer. Life saver! Does pinside allow that?

No need for beer money. Just glad I could help a fellow pinballer.

Quoted from TonLoc777:

Anyone have issues with the right orbit registering shots consistently? It seems to be happening a lil more often with a direct quicker shot through the right orbit. It’s almost like the shot was too quick for the opto? Any advice is appreciated.

I have a pro and there is no opto on the right orbit, only a rollover switch. Probably needs to be adjusted a little.
