I'm approaching the end of my JJ restoration - its taken a good few years, with gaps in between, but the game can now be played - magic!
Now I need to sort out the many "trivial" issues - ie bulbs not lighting, wrong bonus scores etc. And I'm hoping I can tap into the usual freely offered expertise of Pinsiders to help me with this.
I have a couple of issues that I'd like to sort first. I've tried setting the replay levels in the backbox, something that I have never done before. I've gone with the 59/73/81000 scores recommended for a 5 ball game. So I've put the 50000 plug in the 9000 socket and so on. But no replays are registering when I pass these totals, so obviously I've misunderstood something, or something else needs checking. Any ideas, please?
Secondly, the two kick out holes at the top need a bit of sorting. One is permanently at the basic 300 score, the other at the bonus score. I've managed to spot on my schematic (not a strong area for me!) that relay C is in charge of that operation - am I just to check switch cleanliness here or could other factors be at play?
Finally, and still with the kick out holes, the left one has quite a weak kick. I've done a bit of bending of the tip, which has improved matters, but ideally would like to replace the kicker assembly. Does anyone know the PBR part no. and approx cost? They're closed due to Labor Day today, and I'd rather make a stock inquiry with just a little more info if possible.
Thanks for bearing with me so far!
