Quoted from movingpictures:

Just circling back here in case anyone has the same problem.
Thanks a lot for the advice.
In my case it was the #16 top side screw.
I had to pierce the decal to tighten it and then re-adjust the height of the disc since the disc was now sitting higher that it should with everything tight.
Hopefully it doesn't work its way loose again. If it does, I guess you have to use the 425 loctite?
I ordered some for the bottom screw but it had it applied from the factory and it makes it impossible to remove the screw from the shaft. I guess I'm worried if I put it on the top screw I won't ever be able to remove it.

Quoted from lpgnr:

Anyone having their left flipper become sticky? Mine will stay in the up position for a few seconds before coming back down. I have no idea why it has started to do this ...

Quoted from Mattyk:

Here’s my issue. When the scoop is lit to start a song. I shoot the scoop but, my ball quickly fires out of the scoop as my decision to play the song displayed or choose a different song is offered. The song will play as it should.
I checked the scoop switch in test mode with a ball. The ball sits in the scoop and the switch registers as it should. The switch does not appear to work intermittently. It looks like it works perfect. While the ball is in there, I smacked the playfield around to see if another switch was triggering/too sensitive. No issue there.
Has anyone had this issue? Wondering if I have a cold solder joint or something else. Not sure if bending the switch will do anything as it works great in test mode. I’m running code 1.21. Thanks

Quoted from Mattyk:

Thanks for helping. The only switches active (green) are the trough and spinning disk (wheel)

Quoted from O-from-DO:

Hi,
that´s my current issue: Guitar ball lock doesn´t count balls?
During the song, when some balls are collected on the guitar lock and when there are no more balls are on the playfield, the game just stucks. Although there are still some balls left in the trough and the song is still playing, nothing happens until the crowdmeter is low.
There are no bad switches shown in the test. The two gates (ramp and guitar lock) look also fine so far.
It seems, like the ball locks are not noticed or counted.
I´ve heard of this problem with older codes, but I already have 1.21 installed.
Any ideas?
Thanks and have a nice Sunday everyone.
Olli

First post, just joined Pinside. Have 2 pins and one is GNR LE. Ball gets stuck at top of rails of upper playfield metal guitar, only on the right hand lane (there are 3 lanes). It's the inside lane. I'll take a picture next time it happens. Get's stuck every single time, in that one lane. Just learning how to post, let's see if this works.

Quoted from Boognish:

I thought my awesome picture would spark a frenzy of comments and ideas. I'll try the super lube. I've heard of Astro Lube, will try to source this new lube. I'm not sure it's going to help, the diverters seem to spin fine on the other 2 lanes.....

Quoted from Staythirsty:

So desolder magnet wires for now?

Quoted from Vespula:

Newb alert.
I got one... When launching a ball, it very often comes back under that metal flap with the blue rubber dot and then of course has to auto launch again.. repeats this multiple times sometimes until the flap eventually catches it and ball goes into play...
I tried to bend that flap a little thinking the angle needed to be more perpendicular to the play field bit it doesn't want to bend and I'm not sure this is the right way to fix it either..
Thx

Quoted from SJBRENT:

Thanks. How do I adjust the switch?

Quoted from parsonsaj:

My newest (minor, but annoying!) issue... about every 3 or 4 flips, the left flipper is very weak and "spongy". It is rarely this way 2 flips in a row, and it does not seem to be related to the coil getting hot or anything (I do have a Tibetan Breeze kit ordered!), since it sometimes happens on the very first game played after powering on. All the wires look to be well connected. The coil is not loose in its mount. The gaps on the flipper buttons switches look ok. Has to be something simple, right? It's only the lower left flipper that seems to have this malady, and the frequency does seem to be increasing. Any suggestions welcome!

Quoted from Boognish:

I tried it, it worked! Can't believe it. Thanks for the advice.

Quoted from matlynch91:

So it appears to be the coma lock coil that is firing over and over again on start up. Is that intended? At least I know the coil works Thanks all.

Quoted from soldiermedic1331:

Just purchased an LE. Everything is in the green on pin guy for leveling, however, every shot to the bass neck ramp gets stuck if it goes to the left or right lane on the neck. The center lane shots get stuck 50% of the time. Is this meant to be a steeper incline that what Pin Guy suggests?
