Just got a Maverick and am trying to fix her up. I have a broken coil wire that connects to the paddle wheel motor. I'm hoping and I can just repair the broken wire - it sounds possible based on a bit of googling similar issues. Can someone please take a pic of the coil or let me know if there are one or two wires coming out of it - I only see one red coil wire sticking out as of now. Here's a pic of the connector wire that it must attach to. broken coil wire.jpg Thanks!

Yes - what a horrible design. I tried and failed at this so I did the reed switch fix - which was so much easier. Did not even need to drill any holes like the fix suggested.

Couple questions:

1) Does anyone know where to get a replacement Lauren Belle housing?

2) For the captive ball mode, how are you supposed to feed it to that upper flipper? My left orbit always goes to the boat - is that correct?
