Is the ball supposed to stop at the clear window before dropping into sarcophagus? I think it is. Mine is fine until, of course, the third ball drops. And misses. On a good game.
Guess I'll have to try again. Woe is me.

Quoted from PinMonk:

Yeah, sounds like the amp just can't handle the really high volumes. But it's an easy and relatively cheap fix if you want a loud machine. Less than $40 all told.

Vireland--good news-- you'll only have to post that amp link 500 more times, and not the original 666 times originally planned.

#55 5 years ago

While we're talkin about it; dumb question: does that one Pyle drive both speakers, or is it one amp per speaker? Thanks for finding this for everyone.

#56 5 years ago

You hit the nail on the head homie. All of us hearing impaired guys that wanna jack it up to 55 would GREATLY appreciate a thread showing step-by-step installation of this/these amps. At your convenience, of course. Please and thank you.

On mine the music is not clipping the speakers up to 50+, the fx and call outs are though. Not sure if that means anything nor do I care. Installing amp.

#71 5 years ago
Quoted from Fytr:

Anyone notice if the crackling happens when callouts occur or just with music playing?
Looking forward to hearing if the external amp helps.
I pick up my LE today!

Ffs get that syrup outta yer ears man

Quoted from Gryszzz:

On mine the music is not clipping the speakers up to 50+, the fx and call outs are though. Not sure if that means anything nor do I care. Installing amp.

Ha. I've said numerous times, the music is fine until you go over like, 50. Then it clips.
There is a cannon and certain effects that still remain even with speech attenuation at +60 (off) and THAT, plus the call outs, are what are clipping, even at volume 35.
Like RATT pointed out, i think it may be the audio mix.....not sure. Hoping this amp smoothes it out too. Thanks Vireland.
Congrats on yer LE bruh!

#82 5 years ago
Quoted from starbase:

My LE arrived yesterday with sarcaphogus not registering balls. Balls go in trap door in ramp but just sit at the exit gate door, ball just sits there until bal search and then does not register the shot made. Anyone know if there is a easy way to adjust switch 40 and 42? Seems like i have to remove the whole sliding door in front to get to one of them. Any pics of location would be helpful.

Same here.

Quoted from starbase:

Been playing the LE in "pro" mode due to my ongoing issues. Tonight the orb shot captive ball stopped registering so I went to adjust it and it was not gapped well. The thing is no amount of adjustments would make the shot work from a direct hit, only side gits or bottom hits work now. This is a odd switch design to say the least with this metal piece that goes to a weird white plastic piece with a little cup on it. So I give up after messing with it for awhile close the playfield start a game and it now shoots 2 balls into the shooter lane.
I am at a loss about this machine at the moment. One thing after another and I think the game plays better without the LE features regardless.

When we adjusted that orb switch (too close together...scoring points) mine started shooting out 2 or more balls. I had accidentally disconnected the trough wire. Check those maybe reseat them. Hope that works.
I also have a shoddy weld on my rt wireform. No ball hops, but I am wondering if that can knick the balls up, maybe why I'm seeing a lot of scratches. Changed out the balls last night, every one of them knicked up. They were Ninja balls though, which I believe are softer than steel (??).

This is awesome! Good thing I'm not on .94 still or anything....

#337 5 years ago
Quoted from iceman44:

Careful Gryzz, you don't want to blow a board
You should wait at least another week to make sure its green lighted!

I got the under on 30 days. Big $ might be on 45+ though.

That's some funny shit Ice.

#386 5 years ago

Right. I feel pretty lucky to not have any skill shot issues, but, it's just a matter of time. Nice to have all this info readily available for when. Sorry you guys are experiencing those, but the solutions are greatly appreciated.

#387 5 years ago

Ok...I feel pretty dumb asking this; but I have glass off trying to figure shots out. Is the sarcophagus lock meant to ONLY hold one ball for Mummy captive ball? Is there ever a time more than one ball would be loaded into that lock? Been trying to duplicate a 2nd ball locked and haven't been able to, although I coulda sworn I locked 2 balls one time (and 3 locked was the goal).
Have I been mistakenly thinking there is a 3 ball lock in the sarcophagus?
If my dumb questions help anyone else, they are worth asking.

#390 5 years ago

Fwiw, I have never felt compelled enough to ever take glass off of any machine and figure shit out. This one is pure fucking magic though.

#391 5 years ago
Quoted from flashburn:

I believe Keith said it can physically hold 2 or 3 balls, but currently is only coded to hold one.

Thanks man...that was answer I was lookin for.

#395 5 years ago
Quoted from PinMonk:

Mummy Multiball is 2 ball (the ball in play and the one you knock out of the sarcophagus. It can become 3-ball with add-a-ball when you complete the left and right ramps once each.

Right. But is that all (for now) with sarcophagus lock? Ffs I been all up-in-arms about nothin.
Also...my neighbors band really sucks. Tryin to drown them out with Autopsy. So far it's workin what?

#399 5 years ago

First 2 Autopsy albums feckin rule.
My neighbors band sucks from 3 acres away. Between the two of us that's a lot of wilted acreage.

#442 5 years ago

Man that's gotta be frustrating af. Sorry dude. Sounds like distro is top notch though.
When I see Uncle Gary on Fathers Day I'll mention sendin a new one on out homie.

#510 5 years ago

Well gottdamn....I been plunging full force to upper rt flipper---to short flipper---to NEVER the sss jackpot lane. Always hit the lower lane.

Quoted from starbase:

My LE is again unplayable due to stuck up up/down center ramp. I doubt this is fixable without new parts.
I am a few problems away from giving up.

A 2020 pro is the way to go
