Hi. seems like my centerfold mech is not working because the panel spring is broken (took me awhile to figure that out)... so it seems this part is not available. any ideas on how to jimmy it up to get it working in the meantime?

This post was helpful for me to figure out the problem as to why the centerfold would not close.

The part is not available on Marco

thanks.

yeah, I hear you... I think once that spring is in place, it would work fine. Not too much that could go wrong with the other parts... good thing is that it can just be left disabled... and the gameplay would still be fine. probably won't waste too much time trying to fix it, at least I now know why the damn thing would not close properly
