Quoted from Nacman:I gotta admit, am a little frustrated with the lack of help or response. I get asked a question, and I respond, trying to give as much detail and then crickets. I have asked in three separate posts for help. Then I post here about making an original board (frustration and part throwing) and then I get asked about "What Chattering" and I even post a video of it. I thought I fixed it a couple weeks ago, but that was wishful impatience on my part.
I am not as qualified or seasoned with pin repair as most on here. I know what is going on with my machine is not normal and I am at the end of my knowledge rope in what to test in what order. I have all the equipment someone could probably ask me to test with, I just need to be given some input and a little help to perform.

We all like responses right away but with the Holidays approaching we all have a lot going on. There are probably some dealing with some wild weather and I have a friend that just lost his garage when a huge tree dropped on it. Distractions from pinball….
Your video does help show what the issue is. My own Star Trek makes a similar buzz when the drop resets but not the chattering part where it looks like it wants to reset. To me it looks like it could be something in that drop assembly. Mine was an absolute mess and just dropped in a whole new assembly from Pinball life. I think it would help get more eyes on the issue and there are others that have had their Star Trek for much longer and have deeper knowledge of this specific game. Would be good to post the video in this thread:

I’m sure someone has probably come across it before or will have other suggestions on what to try next.
From the description on the Rottendog board it mentions they got all the possible jumpers down to just one. If you have or can find a schematic for that see what that one controls.
