Quoted from forensicd:

Ok, i am at a loss on this one. Recently have had the issue where the game will think the ball has ended while still in play. I have checked all of the trough optos several times over and all function correctly. Not sure what is going on, as it think s the ball is in the trough and will then kick out two balls.

It still sounds like a jam opto problem or a connector problem. Could you have a bad solder point or intermittent opto problem?

Another thing to check is the voltage levels at the test points on the board. Do you have a ColorDMD installed? That can cause the voltage to drop too much and then optos can act up.

Quoted from LTG:

If so, unplug the power connector to it and play a game blind. See if problem remains.
LTG : )

To go even further, I would disconnect all mods that are electrical (shaker, lights, topper etc.). If that solves the problem you could start adding them back one-by-one until the problem comes back.
