Quoted from MurphyPeoples:

Okay I started having trouble in two areas - 100 plays into ownership and need a guiding hand...
1. Balls draining down the middle aren't registering once they enter the ball trough. I'm going to check level on the playfield tomorrow and insure left to right is good. Do I need to clean an opto as well? The problem is intermittent, and shaking the game to the point of tilt helps the opto trough identify the ball.
2. The Chest will not release captured balls all of a sudden. Was working great, but now won't release. If my ball in play drains, the magnetic switch will click on and off trying to get the balls out. Can someone point me to the pictures of where we are supposed to lightly bend back the metal tab holding the balls? I'll also check to make sure the Magnet is fully engaging the release mech too. I really feel that this Chest issue should be a sticky in post number 1. Can't find it in the thread.... but I know it's there. Many on the "fan" thread though?
Thanks so much in advance!

I was going to post these very same issues. I feel like mine have almost been from day 1 though.

Put in my new HMS Endeavor ship mod and lost my Inserts and GI. Initially I thought it was a fuse but they seem to be fine. What loose connection should I be looking for? Spot lights and coils seem fine. I likely knocked something when accessing the backbox, didn't see anything obvious though and reseated connections. Thanks!

Edit: Loose USB cable to light board fixed it.
