Ok, so I just got a JM, and I am working on the issues...

I found the hand switch was not working, so I took the hand off, and found the switch was not even connected.. the wires were just sitting there.. so I reconnected them, put it in switch test mode, and the switch is working..

Now the problem, when the ball gets shot up to the hand, the game resets and drops the ball.. every single time.. No idea where to start on this one..

Any thoughts?

Thanks
Steve

What exactly am I testing? It runs a self test, sometimes it passes and some times it fails..

Loud as hell, I am familiar with what to do about the noise, but no idea about the game rebooting when the ball is in the hand.. In switch test, now the switch does register. I think it might be some kind of switch stuck in hand error, I was getting that before I adjusted it.

Ok, game was resetting due to too much voltage drain on the outlet.. I guess once the magnet was activated it pulled too much voltage for the wall.. I have it on a voltage regulator, and saw a drop.. switched the regulator to another plug, now problem is gone... but man this glove is moving so sloppy, and makes a ton of noise.. I know the x and y nut thing, but I am thinking this needs a total rebuild and lobe as well..

Already had them in my favorites.. I was prepared for this, should I have to do it again... and I do..

Thanks!

I have re-greased the gear box, the x and y nuts seem perfect... just shopping the game now since so much was open with the back of the game removed.

I am going to check out that service bulletin.

Thanks guys!

Oh, I do not know how the hand is working yet... going to shop out the game while this and the 9 ball target area are off.. Might dive into it tonight, but not sure.. but will let you know how it is working when it is done.
