Popeye wheel issue. Used to be intermittent but after launch ball the wheel would instantly stop. I thought it might be a opto but they all appear to work. I took apart the assembly and couldn’t find any issues. An idea?

Quoted from Ive:

How does it perform in diagnostic test ?
Is it possible another unrelated switch is triggering somewhere so the machine thinks the ball is no longer in the wheel assembly ?

I was thinking the same thing it looks like the wheel test is performing fine. But the wheel eject seems to be spotty so I was thinking it’s possibly that switch but then I go into the switch matrix and Test that and it works fine unless somehow with the ball ejector the vibration is causing it to cut out?

Looks like there’s an extra Opto assembly board under the playfield where maybe there was a loose connector. Looks like it’s working OK now we’ll see how long it lasts.
