Quoted from spinout:

Good call RichWolfson... I looked at mine and it occurs to me that the blue ramp switches have green and white wires... which I have had to solder back on from moving that ramp to get to the vortex. It might be the right side blue ramp switch wiring. Take a look at this page, step 4 photo "4. Remove the blue ramp along with the connectors.".... https://troxelrepair.com/visor/ Maybe take the ramp off to see if that switch is wired to anything.

Quoted from MadMaxDad:

I just picked up a PinBot and it has a ‘feature’ I hadn’t seen before.
There’s a wire ball guide / habitrail that goes from the bagatelle area to the left inlane.
The inlane plastic looks like it’s been trimmed a little. Pics on IPDB show that plastic cut similar to the right inlane to allow a ball to drop - so maybe it was a planned feature?
Does anybody else have this?[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from pinballizfun:

That's the lame mod, for people who can't handle ball drains.

Quoted from pinballizfun:

some guy here created it because he was whining that the ball could come off the side of the upper PF (as it was designed to do), and sometime drain if not nudged. So he "fixed" it by adding a ramp to take away the already rare drain scenario. He "fixed" something that was not a problem and made the game easier on himself. Might as well blocked the out lanes while he was at it.
