JCO25 : I never “lubed” drop targets on any of my games. Is that a thing to do?

Quoted from MydknyteStyrm:Thanks for this. Can you clarify where these two white wires with no markings are attached to? This is the one anomaly on my setup. [quoted image]

Quoted from ROMM:What do you have your drop target (dt) timer set for? I recently did a lot of work to my machine, and many of the settings changed. I noticed my drop target timer was really low and it was nearly impossible to knock all 3 targets down with more than one shot. I checked the setting and it had reset to only 4 seconds, which is just ridiculously hard. Changed it to 8 seconds. Still not easy, but doable.
Thanks. I wasn’t aware that you could disable the auto adjust for the drop targets and just pick an active time from the adjustment menu. My targets were resetting quickly after knocking down one target.

Quoted from Skidave:I'm at 6.5 and I have a problem where the balls bounce out of the eye sockets on a strong shot. Also, the same happens on the alley where you collect the 25K, 50K, 75K & Extra Ball. The flippers are the factory coils and very strong. I didn't rebuild them, but they seem fine. The balls did the same at 5.5 degrees. All the plastic saucers under the playfield were replaced with new units from Marco. Everything was torn down and cleaned too.
I'm also adjusting the shooter rod and Vortex ramp. Not perfect yet.
Is the target bank level with the playfield? If it isn’t (either lower or higher) the ball will skip up in the air a little and not reliably go into the eye hole socket on a hard hit. The screws under the playfield will adjust the height of the target bank.

Quoted from BiOLaTeRaLuS:Got a pinbot a couple of weeks ago and I can't get into the menu and I just wanted to check if the wiring to these switches are correct. TIA
My switch on left has fewer wires

Quoted from TronGuy:This is happening a lot. Ball stuck on the ridge. Happen to anyone else?

There are 2 adjustment screws under the playfield that set the height of the switch bank. Adjust these so that the bank when down is level with the playfield.
