Just got a High Roller.
The diverter only opens to right in the middle of the ramp during game play.
In test mode, the coil fires and pulls it in, but doesn’t hold it in.

The original spring that holds the diverter closed (so the ball goes to the left) was super big and seemed too strong - with that spring, the diverter (in game play) wouldn’t open at all.
i replaced with a weaker spring, now it opens half way. The current spring has almost no tension on the diverter. The diverter pretty much goes closed on it’s own from gravity.

The diverter moves freely, doesn’t bind.
The picture shows me holding the original beefy spring and the new weaker spring installed.

What do I test next?
Thanks
