Sorry if I missed it, but is anyone else having an issue on ball 1 of the first game after you turn the machine on? After I launch the ball and hit with a flipper, the flippers die and won't work. Then the ball save has a hard time launching another ball. After like 15 seconds, the flippers will just start working again and it's fine until you power it off. It's like the lower section of the playfield loses power temporarily. Only happens on ball 1 of first game after powering on.

Quoted from chuckwurt:
Sounds like your node board is restarting due to a short somewhere. See if the game throws up any errors when you boot it up or run the node board tests to see if anything comes up. It’s most likely a LED lamp socket short somewhere.

I'll try that, thank you!

Is anyone else having an issue with balls getting stuck behind the jump ramp? It looks like the jump ramp is aiming a little left, if I could rotate it clockwise just a bit, it would solve the issue

You nailed it, that's exactly what it was. I ran the test and got the overcurrent protection error on board 8. Said it was a white light, so I re-seated the white bulbs and no more issue. This is my first machine, so thank you very much!!

If I decide to add a subwoofer, do I also need an amp to power it?

Quoted from Muymanwell:
not if you get a powered sub, like a psw10

Sweet, and makes sense. Thank you!

Quoted from ChipScott:
This is a good $35 spent at Pinnovators. Very small little board they make that connects into the Spike to board in the back box.
Comes with the cables needed to run down through the bottom of the cabinet and power a sub. They recommend, and I have had good success with the Polk 10-in sub. Awesome effect.

Just ordered both, thank you!

Quoted from BallyKISS1978:
Get the pinnovators spike II adapter for $35 and a psw10.

Ordered both today, thank you!!

Quoted from HurryUpPinball:
Thanks for the feedback TonyVRD! I’m glad it solved your issue. Each machine is going to play a little different. The first ball on my pin would barely clip the left flipper and the next two would immediately hit the drain with the game perfectly level. My friend has one on location and his sent all 3 down the drain when level so I just wanted to add this as an option to fix the issue for those experiencing it. I also wanted to dress up the building as it is pretty plain up there. If anyone would like to order one, I created a forum topic found here: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/godzilla-prem-le-building-mod-multi-ball-sdtm-fix

I also figured I would share the prototype box with all the trial and error pieces. Tried lots of angles and designs before I got to the final mod.

Quoted from Muymanwell:

Blue looks great! Where can I get these?

Quoted from BallyKISS1978:
Comet pinball has them and they are cheaper.

Awesome, thank you!!

I finally beat Ebirah, was having the hardest time defeating that monster. Only megalon left for tier 1!

I got my NIB GZ premium 13 days ago and my insider connected says I've played 325 games. So glad I got this for my first machine. Been playing since the early 90's and I just can't stop playing this machine. The best part is that my son absolutely loves it, and it's his first time playing. He has over 150 plays himself, makes a father proud!
