I was having this problem along with this spinner issue. I tried the fix that Ritchie suggested, but it didn’t seem to last. I took the top off of electric magic to reverse the spinner to see if that corrected the problem. I also paid attention to make sure the electric magic cover was flush with the rest of the playfield when it was in the lowered position. A few games in and I have noticed a definite improvement in the bounce backs on the center ramp. Spinner seems to be working better as well.

I had spinner problems about 5 games in on my LE. I turned my spinner around 5 days ago, not 1 problem since, it rips. Could have been the bending the wire while turning it made it coincidental, but then I look at the other spinner on the left side, the shorter side is always closer to the bottom of the machine. I think it might be that some just had the sticker put on backward and the spinner was put in the wrong way.

I tired some light blue on match up with the powder coat..

The more I have played it the more I enjoy it. Takes a bit to dial in on the shots..now I am loving it.

Also, FWIW, I turned the spinner a week ago. Not a single problem since.. could be that it just bent the arms in enough when I did it to turn it around, but it could be that some were put in backwards..my spinner leans slightly inward now.

I got mine as an add on option when I purchased the RGB illumination mod. Simple, but I really think it adds a lot. Looks great.

Still waiting on mine...

Little Shop of Games has them available for purchase, but it’s a pre order, they said they hope it will ship this month. I’m still waiting to get mine, but I have no concerns about ordering from them.

I could be mistaken, but I think I remember someone mentioning the same problem and ended up rotating the EM frame 180 degrees.or do you think something else below the playfield is hanging up?

Awesome, I hate to say that the first one is a gateway pinball and it probably won’t be your last!

I bought home another to pair with my LE yesterday

It is 1 and 3/4, you can order most places, I’ve ordered from both from Titan and Marco super bands.

I contacted Stern initially to tell them I was having problems with the EM, Pablo replied with the instruction and said it was not a permanent fix and the engineers were still working on. I replied to Pablo directly a few weeks ago and said I have been seeing the new spinners making into the hand of owners and asked if I needed to request one, I did not receive a reply. Earlier this week I forwarded the emails between Pablo and I to Sterns general mailbox, still no reply. I do think Stern will eventually take care of it.

LZ not having When the Levee Breaks is almost criminal..but AC/DC does not have Long Way to the Top if You Want to Rock N Roll or Dirty Deeds.. I would guess some songs are more expensive to license than others. And it’s impossible to make everyone happy unless they could pick out their own set list. My AC/DC actually got me listening to the Black Ice album more

briyau15 Congrats on the LE. I believe anything past 1.02 has the toned down expression light show.

That’s is something…wow. What do you think caused it, bad wiring?

My topper has been fine, but I have only had it a few months since it was made in a later run.

That’s crazy, I’d almost wonder if there is a problem with what’s coming from the power or cpu board. Does GAP have a LZ setup that you could put it on to see if the problem replicates?

Good luck. I am glad you figured it out.

So this recently happened to my AC/DC…I’m not taking chances and will be adding the washers to the guides. I know it’s not apples to apples, but I’m going with ounce of preventative vs pound of penance.

^this, ignore the bubble. I have mine at 6.8 and it feels pretty good. I started at 7.2 and slowly brought it down to 6.8 to lower the self loathing.

I put Cliffy’s in all my pins, especially scoops. Even Stern is putting some cliffy type protectors in some of the newer games, but they are not nearly as good as Cliffy’s from what I have been seeing.

Lol, I’m read that earlier was going to ask how far you bent them while thinking I may need to bend my wireform more….or less….and then decided I needed to suck less and deleted the reply.

Obviously I bent mine too far then

I have a LE, it comes with HD glass. I play more with lights on than off. I’ve started adding anti glare glass to my other games. It does make a big difference.

Turn up the volume

Happens a lot. I rotate that ring a lot and have spares on hand.

Something like this

10-Inch Digital Torpedo Level and Protractor | Neodymium Magnets | Bright LED Display | V-GROOVE MAGNETIC BASE | IP54 Dust/Water Resistant smart level with Carrying Bag https://a.co/d/cjSTEiN

I’m very tempted, the game screams that it needs When The Levee Breaks in it..
