Timers sound perfect. Scoring makes so much more sense. I can't wait for this code. My DESW with new code and patch is a blast to play now. I use to just look at that game, now I play the snot out of it. Might even get a JP now and it was never even on my radar... Thanks Chad

Wow! That is one nice Hook. Cool to see someone give that kind of love to a machine that some (not me) don't consider worthy.

Mine did the same. Replaced both ribbon cables and it resolved it (so far). Don't think it's related to the new code.

Great Plains Electronics has them cheaper but I think you need to have the length and pin count.

This fixed mine.

I "floated" my sound board by replacing the mounting screws on the sound board with nylon (or plastic?) screws separating it from the ground loop. That didn't completely eliminate to "data east hum" but it helped quite a bit. If you search pinside for "data east hum" you should find a bunch of info on this known issue.

It seems like the best fix of all involves installing a separate power supply for the sound board. I think somewhere around $40 for one with the needed 12v and 5v outputs. If you go that route, you will need to get your line voltage (110-120) from your machine somehow. Bill validator, service outlet (re wired to turn off with main switch) or from switch/filter box maybe. I have not done this but have read about it somewhere here.

Need some help please. My right flipper stopped working (started by being weak then hanging up for a second, now just dead). Thought it was the flipper board, replaced that with a pinled board. No change, tried a new coil, no change, tried jumping the button/switch, no change. Does not show up on switch test when pressed either. It does light the led on the flipper board when pressed though. Any ideas what to try next? Thanks much!

Thanks @Pinballjj,
No flipper test in coil test that I could find but the left fires when button is pressed during coil test and right still does not.

Thanks @garretswinning, I did check the switch and also tried jumping it at the solder lugs just in case. Also it does register on the led on the flipper board but not in the switch test.

Congrats!
