Just thought I'd throw this one out there, it's not a big problem, just occionally annoying and I wonder if any other Shadow owners suffer the same thing?

On the Shadow the left ramp is split by the diverter and the ball rolls along the wire form, in this instance I'm interested in when the ball goes right(toward right flipper) and when it hits the first switch on the wire form after the ramp diveter, pic below.

Quite often the ball doesn't always make good connection with this switch and thus not activating it, it seems that very fast balls appear to go up the ramp/diverter and then right above the switch rather than in front of it where the best contact would be made. When a softer shot is played a slower ball always rolls over the switch with no probs.

Anybody else suffer with this situation?

Excellent tomdotcom, I'm glad to hear I'm not alone on this one. They are great fixes, I like both ideas of moving the switch and now I have another project.

Thanks.

Yep final battle is pretty frantic I got there 4 times and still haven't beaten it.
