Good Afternoon Everyone,

I wrapped up the few fixes and adjustments needed to have the pin play 100%. So now I decided to put the backbox door panel on.. and crap, when doing that is dampens the bell sounds to a point that they are barely heard. I take the door off and they are loud. Do the back door panel on the wedgeheads tend to do that? I just thought, could the coil for both bells be weak, they are the correct coils (A5143 & A1496) according to the schematic.

thanks

Thanks Vic,

I can see already that the 10 point bell plunger has NO plastic tip, so I'll correct that. (I should have known to check for that)

As for the one point bell striker, I can see that the striker is not striking properly. I'll make adjustments there and see how things go..

Thanks again, I'll report back when I can

Thanks
Steve

Thanks again Vic....

Both bells are sounding much better.... with the backbox door on....

I replaced the broken 10-point bell plunger with a good one.

The 0-9 bell was not installed in the correct location on the 0-9 unit, once I reinstalled it into the slide mounting hole and positioned it, all's good

Thanks
Steve
