Sometimes when I hit the shot under the tanker the ball doesnt register. Hitting the flipper seems to make it work but sometimes it will start searching for the ball. Any ideas is this a common issue?

I looked at the switch and it seems that the arm isnt nearly long enough to register the ball every time. First time lifting a sega playfield seems wierd it goes completley upright.
Im going to order a new switch but want to confirm it has the correct one installed.
Quoted from BloodyCactus:which one is the tanker? On my SST, it does not always recognise the ball going into the nukes saucer under the grasshopper on the left of the playfield. I think this is a bug in the rom, it works most times, but in some modes it wont get triggered and starts a ball search. If its not in a mode it will work all the time, but in a mode, it will often get hung up and not kicked out until ball search mode.
The tanker is the big bug on the right of the playfield under the pop caps. I ordered a switch and will probably order upgraded roms unless someone with a burner can do it for cheaper.
Quoted from tonymiddendorf:You're going to hate me for saying this, but I'm getting tired of my SST.
Best of luck with your issue- hopefully it's an easy fix!
I really like mine but holy smokes is it hard. To funny Tony you could have saved me a few bucks had you sold me yours.
