Quoted from KozMckPinball:

Has anybody put a tv mod on a fastbreak yet? Could play game footage of your favorite players..

Sounds like a great idea, where would you put it though? Maybe right ramp in the corner?

How about a tablet or 22" LCD Topper with a cool marquee around it. Throw in an actual nerf basketball hoop as part of the topper and you got some real multiball action.

Quoted from Brog319:

Just purchased a fastbreak and have a question. When the hook shot diverter coil fires it makes a pretty loud humming sound. When it releases the sound stops. Is that normal for this game? I tested resistance on that coil and it tests good. May be nothing to worry about but was curious if others make this noise and is normal. Thanks

Normal. If it’s annoying you or performing poorly you can try using a new coil sleeve on the diverter.

Quoted from pcprogrammer:

Hey Fastbreak owners. Is there a way to turn off that mini game in the backbox. I am thinking about getting another FB but I always disliked that backbox shooting during games. Anything in the code to disable?

The only software adjustment you can make is to disable it during Attract mode. You could unplug the flipper in the backbox if you want to make it unusable, but the mode will still start.

Sounds like a flaky switch. Could be a few things:

1. Switch itself is just unreliable and needs to be replaced
2. Diode on the switch is unreliable and needs to be replaced
3. Some wiring connecting to the switch is flaky and you need to reflow solder there
4. The wiring or a connector is flaky, a visual inspection usually can rule this out, sometimes the IDC connections need to be pushed back in.

Take the glass off and manually test the switch with your finger, see it working in the switch matrix, then start a new game and push the switch. It should make the sound effect for a drained ball.

If you can get the switch to trigger the ball drain sound effect, then drain another and try to see if Million Dollar shot will trigger on ball three.

I've had switches that can be made to work manually, but after sitting a while the switch itself stops clicking. My suspicion is it might be a similar issue and the solution is to replace the switch.

Quoted from SimplePin:

Seems like I could bend that wire to make it more sensitive but that's probably not right solution.

Ding ding ding! We have a winner!

That would be called "adjusting the switch". Follow your intuition here because it is on the right track!

If you over adjust it the balls might have trouble rolling over it and a slow one could get stuck. So be gradual with your tweaking and you can always go the opposite direction if you over do it.

An amazing amount of pinball repair work boils down to making very subtle adjustments to pieces of metal. Often 1mm or less can be the difference between something working just right, or not working at all.

Not sure about the bracket but Titan Pinball has the squares.

Replaced it once and it was during a bigger project so the ramps and everything were off. Should probably at least get the hook shot ramp out of the way for easier access.
