My HobbitLE gets delivered tomorrow!

It’s a Dec/Nov build I believe. Anybody know what code it should come installed with. I’m gong to get my usb ready tonight and wondered if I’d need to install 2.0 first. Not sure when 2.0 came out and if it would be installed on Dec/Nov build. Thanks.

Thanks LTG. Appreciate the quick response
I’ve done updates on WOZ and DI, only past issue was needing to try a different USB.
....was curious about if 2.0 would be needed before 2.96. Looks like I’ll get to go straight to the delta Tomorrow afternoon can’t get here soon enough.

HobbitLE #62 delivered today. Code update installed after finding loose connector on back of blank monitor screen. Glad that’s all it was.
Loving this game!
Question. I noticed that the yellow dome light on top of the non barrel pop bumper was not lit up when the other yellow dome lights were.
I checked in test and it did not light up with Gi only or All Led tests. Would light up short/quick flashes in the LED & Flash test. Is this correct? Thanks

Edit: seems to flash fine when I hit the ball into the bumpers so I assume its ok.

Next issues with my NIB Hobbit:

Found 4 loose screws laying in cabinet. 3 of them came from coin mech. I remember a past post with someone showing a pic of these screws. Have not figured out 4th screw

My pop up peg in left outline would not pop up when starting a mode. Found loose nut on plastic height adjustment screw and screw backed all the way out. Adjusted and raised height and all ok.

I’m getting a drop target banks malfunction detected in test report but all seems to work in game play??

Upper flipper seems very weak and slow to respond. Had a similar issue with NIB WOZ once opened and found broken spring but spring is intact....thoughts.

Left coin slot will not allow coin through to register have to press to fall through coin return. Right works fine. Was missing both thumb screws on left and upper on right. Found all 3 as previously mentioned.

Loving game between fixes
Thanks for help.

Which one of these screws? I’m sure most know which screw. I’ve got 3 pins and an arcade machine but have never had to adjust the coin mechs. Sorry for the noob questions

Thanks for the quick responses LTG.
I’ve turned it quarter turn trying quarters each time and it now falls stalraight to the con return but not through the mech to register payment. I’ve screwed it several turns and no changes.

It was this top spring. It was pushed too far to the right. When you said TJ check if everything moved freely. I compared it to the right coin mech. That spring went up and down but left one wouldn’t move until I pushed it to the left to seat it correctly. Thanks Lloyd !

How much weaker should the upper flipper be compared to the right and left flippers? My WOZ upper flipper seems just as strong as lowers. But Hobbit is much weaker.

I’ve got the fax machine sound and static issues coming out of both my right and left speakers and possibly slightly from the sub.
I’ve made it through not quite half of the tweaks and adjustments thread and saw many people talking about different things to try. Wondered what the current consensus was to correct this issue before opening a ticket with JJP.
Thanks

Where should a orbit around from the left loop end up? ....left flipper? Because mine ends up SDTM every time if I don’t divert with the upper flipper. Is this correct?

Ughh. Mines not close to right flipper. Thought I could angle it out to hit left flipper.
Thoughts on getting it to the right flipper? I have everything apart right now to adjust. Run in to post if I try to push bracket outward. And no wiggle room with bracket and screw.
