Okay, if this is posted in the wrong spot I apologize....tried my best to figure out before posting. Here is my issue. I have a Batman 66 Premium Catwoman edition. Great game. I wanted a topper and ultimately acquired the Stern Limited Edition topper - the one with Batman and Robin in the car. In reading/talking with folks it seemed this would work with a few modifications. First, I acquired Stern part number 511-7859-00. This is a board that does not come on the premium version. It does not come with any cables. So.....board was mounted and topper wire harness plugs into the board per instructions - easy. Second, because the board doesn’t come with any cables then there were some cables I had to obtain - so I ordered a power cable for the board plus the network cable and two other cables for the new board. They are all plugged in and seemed like things were a go. But not really. The topper has power and will light up. The bat signal works but its not really distinguishable (ie it’s more like a light on the ceiling than a bat signal). But otherwise it doesn’t really do anything. No flashing lights....nada. The Batman logo will occasionally light up.....occasionally the red light will light up....but Batman/Robin remain dark. So this cannot be right. I had the coin door open earlier and the entire topper light up so I know its not an issue of some bad lights or anything like that. I have Stern toppers for Ghostbusters, Avengers IQ, Guardians, TMNT, and Star Wars and they are all illuminated and acting correctly. This just seems wrong.

So my question is.....anyone ever done this? Possibly there are some other cables that need to be acquired? Maybe this is as good as it gets? Maybe a code issue with running the LE topper on Premium machine?

Well. I think I have it working now. Adjusted a few cables here and there....reset the machine a couple of times. Now the topper appears to be working correctly. My bat signal spotlight needs some adjusting as it is more a spotlight than a bat signal. Not sure how that works just yet but plan to focus on it some tonight. For now it looks pretty dang good in the lineup.
