Hello,
The Lightning I'm working on will not eject the balls from the trap(s) when the game is over. In test mode all switches are working as is are the solenoids. During game play it recognizes when the ball(s) are in the traps and it will do the multiball. But if a ball(s) are left in the trap(s) they don't eject at the end of the game. Not sure if it's a transistor or something else. The schematic is a little cryptic to me. I hope its something simple I'm over looking.
Thanks!
Mine doesn't either, I just assumed that is how it's supposed to be. If there is an option to have them kick out at the end of a game, it's likely a dipswitch setting (I know on my Fathom it's exactly this because I changed it to kick out after having it for about a week).

There is not an option to release the balls once the game is over. Your game is normal and it is working as designed. Black Knight does not release locked balls from the upper playfield either.
