Don't worry about the screw. It rolled out of who knows where. Could even be an extra from manufacturing. Later you ever see a hole in wood without one, stick it there.

Metal clip holds cash box down with lid on, along the back edge snaps into a bracket.

Stage light cover - please contact JJP to get a new one.

Bend arm of switch up a little, towards the end, not the end where it is hooked on. Or if your button on the lockdown bar has a screw, unscrew it a little to make better contact.

Flipper - sounds like it's sticking on something. See if it has a bit of up and down play ( not back and forth ) and check plunger/plastic link/pawl for binding. And be sure the coil stop in on tight.

LTG, fast at work again. How could we survive without you?

Hope we don't find out.

Hang onto that metal clip. Just in case it secures the upper playfield like the rocking playfield on POTC. I don't have a game to check.

Quoted from BeeGee6533:

That slit/cut seems to be factory designed.

No. It's from the flipper going up and banging the rubber ring into the metal lane guide right above it.

I'd cut the end of that metal down a bit so it doesn't cut the rubber ring.

Quoted from BeeGee6533:

It may be that more than the lane guide being too long.

I'd trim it off a bit and call it a day.

Quoted from kermit24:

What about slightly bending the lane guide up?

I just looked at the picture again.

Yes that would be better.

Be sure the coil sleeve in there is long enough.

Tests - Switches - Matrixed - hit the switches, see if they work and error goes away. Or might need simple adjusting if the ball doesn't trigger them good.

Quoted from mikedre:

I did notice an ethernet like cord connector looks bent but that may be an unrelated thing.

Unrelated. Might be for lighting - I don't have a game to check.

Quoted from mikedre:

I hit the two switches and they did nothing. They don’t seem to click like other similar ones.

Turn the game off. Check with a meter. Be sure they aren't adjusted so they are stuck closed and can't click.

Quoted from kermit24:

I believe those two switches have switch covers with zip ties holding them on. They could be on too tight not allowing the switch to actuate.

Could be. Being I don't have a game to check, I don't know for sure.

Is my best bet to just call JJP?

To adjust a switch that hasn't been hit ?
