My diverter won’t open all the way. There is something going on with the coil stop end of the coil assembly which opens the diverter. Please look at my photo and suggest a solution. I’m guessing I may need to purchase the bracket assembly but I’m not sure what I’m seeing with the springs at the end of the coil by the stop.

The diverter easily opens when I manually open it so the issue is not something binding.

Thanks.

Darin

Is there a specific roll pin punch I need? I don't currently have one (and, honestly, wasn't even sure of what one was until a few minutes ago) or is something along these lines fine to buy?

Also, do you have a photo of what it is supposed to look like so I know what I'm supposed to be going for when my parts come in?

Thanks for your help, Lloyd!

Okay. That is helpful. Thanks.

Looking at the photo again...it looks as if I purchase the plunger/spring combo I will not need the roll pin punch. Is that correct?

If so, in your opinion is it a simpler, quicker fix just to put in a new plunger/spring combo or easier to just swap out the spring? The game is on location so the easier the fix the better.

Perfect. My Pinball Life order is going out today. Thanks for the timely info. You are the best.
