Quoted from thunderking50:

Get the New Board.
Get the software 1.6 in there.
and in the game settings Number 89 default is yes....Set this to NO
This Fix works Perfectly for everyone i helped and the freakin Hammer is awesome !

You rock thunder king! After a month with my Metallica, I started having awkward hammer issues. This adjustment seems to have improved it to a 95% consistency which is great ! Thanks for posting this.

Quoted from jeffspinballpalace:

Have been running 1.64 software and tried two replacement opto boards to no avail. Setting #89 is set to no by factory default. Tried swapping balls and that didn't help. Finally, turned shaker motor off and all the sudden, magnet works 100% now. So played a handful of games concentrating on nothing but hitting the coffin to test the magnet. I made scores of $163M and $154M, pretty respectable imho. This game is so much more fun when the hammer works. I was at my wit's end with the phantom hammer - but no more.
Anybody else resolve thier hammer issue in this manner? I might try engaging shaker at less power, but not if it mucks with hammer consistency.

This reminds me of the flipper jitter issue I was having with my STLE anytime the shaker was supposed to fire and failed it would cause the flippers and flashers to jitter. The fix for me was replacing the shaker board and wiring associated with it including the long 1-wire that goes to the back. So I'd look into replacing everything associated with the shaker motor.
