Hi guys,
anyone ever come across this issue,
the spinner spins and registers points but 8 times out of 10 it comes to register horiziontally and the ball flies underneath not hitting the spinner.

is there a fix for this?

Thanks for your time and consideration

All I do is lubricate the spinner with some silicone spray. Sometimes it will just happen.

Pull the spinner and use needle nose pliers to adjust the wire.
It should be centered and at a 90 degree to the spinner.
Make sure it isn't binding on the switch or in the mount.

I have used some sticker weights (normally used on fishing lures) on the bottom of the spinner before. It is light weight so it doesn't seem to effect the spinner but can't escape gravity and always lines back up.
