Just picked up a Freddy and I'm trying to iron out some initial issues. Any help would be great.

In attract mode the jaw on the head keeps moving up and down. I'm not sure if this is working as designed or an issue. Can anyone with this table comment on that? Also regarding the head, if I start the game with balls in the head receptacle, it seems like the head kicker is trying to send them up and out but it's not strong enough and they just fall back down. I measured the ohms on the 5195 head kicker coil and it seems to be good.

Other issue seems to be I cannot get the game into tournament mode to set it into free play. I checked the switch on the mini test circuit board and it seems to be working fine. Any thoughts here? Does anyone know where that tournament switch leads to in the head unit?

Also, does anyone know what triggers the "Ball Stuck, Call Service Person" message?

Much thanks.
