I tried to play my WOZ yesterday and found the monkey door will not open, it just makes a sort of motor noise;

Any ideas Pinside?

Cheers.

Sorted it was indeed the screws loose on the door shaft, what a bitch to get to!

Also the motor that drives the monkey up and down is having trouble, damn all this from a new machine!

No, it judders going down and is so slow in going down the ball is released from the magnet.

I've been told its the brushings in the motor and to open and reassemble it should fix the issue.

Sadly this machine as great as it is has been a real PITA!

This is now fixed.

It was a bitch to get the mini-playfield out, but once done, all I had to do was tighten up the mini allen-nut on the motor / door shaft.

All working now.

Now my Monkey is not going down as it should!!

It judders down the first say quarter of the way then picks up speed, but by the time it get to the magnet the machine has released the ball, I'll try and video it this weekend.
