Could go either way. Probably DMD.
Best bet, find someone with another dmd pin and put your dmd into theirs for a minute to see how it behaves.
Quoted from papazit1963:Same problem here on my TSPP. Solution?
the advice was even already given above
Swap the Dmd with the one on your getaway and see.

I breifly thought of that but I assumed that they would be different. I'm learning that a lot of parts are the same ones used by many different manufacturers--Williams, Stern, etc. Thanks for the advice, but I already ordered a new one for my TSPP. Figure if that's not the problem, then I'll use it soon anyway.
