Very cool. I think just about every JJPPOTC owner would be up for getting this installed on their games.

Quoted from Psw757:

After seeing these close up videos of it in action, it’s a game changer! The interactive chest adds quite a bit. Really makes you wonder why they gave up on it.

Once this is out there, nobody is going to want to have a static opened chest . This is truly must have.

I finally started installing my opening chest mod last night and made some pretty good progress. I still need to upgrade the software since I have one of the first units shipped out.

The stopping point I hit was with one of the connectors. I couldn't find in the instruction videos where to connect the smaller control connector. Not the power connector that taps into the BP power harness, but the smaller cable. I assume that controls the servo. Which video would I find that in? I watched the "under the playfield" installation video (where I would have expected to find it) a few times. It only mentions the power tap.

Quoted from arzoo:

The smaller connector is for the optional LED mod inside the chest. If you didn't order the lighting mod then you won't use the smaller connector. The open/close mod itself only needs power.

Really? How is it triggered? I thought it's tied to ball locks. I must have missed something in the instructions. I did notice a leaf switch on the side that I couldn't figure out what activates it. Could it have something to do with that?

I got it working! Super cool. It makes this game feel complete.

The reason I didn't see what was triggering the leaf switch is because the lower nylon post that triggers it had fallen out of my fork mechanism. I found them at the bottom of the cabinet.

I also didn't need to upgrade the software.

Thanks harryhoudini for putting this together.
