I’m getting a switch stuck open error for switch 32(diverter magnet) in the tech checks but the board is working fine and locking the bar. Is this related to the new board or should I start someplace else?

Quoted from ypurchn:I’m getting a switch stuck open error for switch 32(diverter magnet) in the tech checks but the board is working fine and locking the bar. Is this related to the new board or should I start someplace else?
Not the board. On my game where all boards are tested there are no errors. I would check the diverter magnet in game play and also the diverter magnet fuse. If that's working then maybe an old error message thats not been cleared.

10-4. Ball is locking so I’m assuming a fuse isn’t blown. Not sure why it hasn’t cleared. Oh well bigger fish to fry. Thanks for the help.
Please add me to your list for Goldeneye. Thank you for making this board.
My current Board works after extensive repair work by me years ago but for how long.
Claremore, OK
Quick note, i'm moving through the order list and contacting everyone who wanted to order a board in the order they got in touch privately or on this thread. Please make sure you respond to me so i know whether you still want to be included, otherwise i will move to the next person on the list
I received my boards yesterday and installed it now the magnets on my twister are working again. It was super nice to have the game fully working again.
Quick note for owners. Please remember that my board works in 2 games and has a pic specific to that game in it. Installation of boards meant for another game will cause strange results, though will work to a degree. 
For my own logistics, I mark every pic programmed for goldeneye with a GOLD dot on the ic. Pic ics for Twister have no dot and are just plain. Please bear this in mind if you buy 2 boards or want to swap the board to a different game. Contact me if you want an alternative pic for your board. Swapping pic ics is at your own risk though.

Just a quick update to answer all the above questions since jan, Yes i am making these boards still and will continue to do so for as long as there is interest. Anyone who has expressed an interest here or via pm has been added to the wait list.
I have been moving offices over the last few months, so appologies for the slower than normal reply.
Boards are being built as fast as i can make them and keep the quality that is important to me, so sit tight and you will get one
So far around 18 boards shipped to people and their games saved

Put yourself on my list for a new board! Thats your best option The originals are usually pretty toasted

Check the fuses for them under the playfield, maybe you get lucky and that's the issue. Check that the connectors are in the right spots, etc. Just don't assume the prior owner didn't do any troubleshooting.

Hi applejuice. I was looking on the internet for a board for my twister machine and ended up here.
I am new in the forum, but would like to know if I can also ask for one board, and if you ship to Brazil.
What would be the cost for the magnetic board you build up?

Got my board from Apple Juice, worked perfectly, my Twister has never played this well! The old one was very intermittent, and worked when it felt like it. Thanks again for taking the time to make this board the way it should be.

Quick Update. The next few boards are ready to ship, so if you are in the queue check your pinside mail.
Also, i am in talks with various manufacturers here in uk to get the next 25 boards assembled for me. Demand with these is such that i cant keep up manually assembling them. There may be a small price increase to accommodate this, but the delivery times will be vastly increased. I'll keep everyone in the loop and continue to manually assemble in the mean time.
We have currently shipped around 40 boards to people and saved this number of classic sega games

Found a great manufacturer here in uk, so the next batch of 25 boards is about to begin assembly. We are just finalising the full list of parts required before shipping everything to them with the blank pcbs.
We hope to have boards for all people on the wait list soon. If all goes well then we will repeat this process in the future once all boards are sold and also for other products we make.
1 week later
Boards are now being assembled and I are scheduled to be completed and ship to me 4th March
I will be contacting everyone on the list in the order they contacted me.
If you want to be added to the list now is the time
Once these 25 are sold we may do another run but other boards will be higher priority first
2 weeks later
Just to let everyone following this thread and waiting for boards. I have contacted via pm everyone on the wait list i believe now, so please check your pinside mail. Also if you haven't been contacted by me, please get in touch. There are a lot of magnet boards here waiting for new homes and pinball games to save Possibly the largest amount of magnet boards in one place for nearly 25 years!!
