Quoted from wtatumjr:I'm not one for modding but here's a nice solution to hide the ball gate from Space Coast Pinball. It's about $85. They are very nice people to order from. Before and after.

Got mine the other day, can’t wait to install.
Quoted from Mapalot:Yep. Same issue. I took it out, carefully bent it back to flat (except the small portion that holds it on its rack) , and replaced it. That worked for probably 300 plays but it happened again last night. I followed the same procedure and seems to be working again, not hanging up. I am trying to get a couple of spares because I expect that it will continue to happen and eventually break from the bending back into place.
Thanks for the info. I’ve contacted Stern about a replacement but will bend it back in the meantime.

Another follow up. What I did is reverse how the gate is installed. Seems to work better than just bending it back, although there was some bending involved too. Time will tell.
Maybe I missed something but why did v1.05 restore old high scores? Everything from v1.04 was wiped out and it seems to have restored high scores from around 1.02ish.
Cracked #22 plastic the other day after about 10,000 plays. I have a replacement on order but was wondering how to protect it going forward without buying an entire plastic protector set. I already have the Cointaker protectors for the lanes and slings but I don't think a protector is necessary for every piece.

They have sent me two new gates. Hard to say if they were any better since my Pro had 14,000 plays on it before we replaced it with a Premium.

Thanks, I bent it previously but I guess it didn’t take.
Quoted from Wagzology:Having an issue with my electric magic stage. The stage will move up and down continuously every 5-10 seconds on it's own without correlating with the code. The error that is coming up says, "Operator alert! Electric magic lockup device malfunction". I would be able to facetime if possible. Any guidance or fix to this will be greatly appreciated.
I am having this same issue and my cables are zipped tied. Nothing seems to be obstructing. Any other things to check out?
Quoted from LOTR_breath:Buy a new spinner?

I wish it was that simple. I cannot find a single place that sells one. Similar replacements do not work properly.
Quoted from Pin_Fandango:contact Stern support and they will either send you one or sell you one. The game is also being produced/on the line now, so there is no better time to find this in stock than now.
Ha! I have been going back and forth with them this morning and I feel like I have been taking crazy pills reading their responses. And based on their last response it will be several months before I see one. Still waiting on other parts for other games since early this year.

Quoted from andre060:You can't buy online for a part like that - they're saying call your distributor, who *can* do exactly what you're trying to do which is to get a specific part for a game that's not available anywhere else.
I get that but it’ll take likely take months as usual, which is silly.

60 days and counting for a spinner from Stern. Marco apparently bought the "last" five they had in stock (that's laughable) but Stern has not shipped them to Marco yet. 60 days.
I have been getting the EM Lockup error for some time. I have read through the posts, PDFs, basically everything I can find. Nothing is working. Can someone please take a look at these videos and photos to perhaps give me some indication of what's wrong? I have zip tied the cables multiple times, changed the magnet, adjusted screws, etc. I'm about to throw this thing out the window.

Quoted from wtatumjr:Do you get the error only when it's trying to raise?
It doesn't display the error during gameplay. It simply won't stay down.
Press start and it goes down then immediately back up. Never goes down again.
Quoted from wtatumjr:Have you tested the spinner opto? If the opto is blocked the pin will think there's a ball in the EM .
Active like this? Spinner opto isn’t but the magnet is. Could be misaligned? I am using a Marco spinner since my original broke. I believe it’s a bit thicker than the factory spinner. It has been 90 days since I’ve requested a new one.
Quoted from wtatumjr:Magnet opto should not register if no ball is on it. Spinner opto should not register if at rest position-spin it several times just to test it.
I think what is happening is EM thinks you have a ball in there and raises. If it doesn't clear you might eventually get the EM failure alert.
If it's the magnet opto you'll need to find the problem.Loose wire, stray piece of metal, alignment problem, bad opto
Appears to be an alignment issue coupled a janky after market spinner. I fixed the alignment issue but the ball would get stuck on the spinner as the EM went down. Pinball Life had just one narrow opto spinner in stock yesterday so I ordered it. Hoping this solves the problem.
