Can some please post a picture of the two under playfield diverters. Need to check wiring and orientation.
Quoted from vec-tor:If you are talking about the flipper mechanism, You need
a torque driver and a 3/8 wrench. If it is a revised pawl
assembly then all you need is the wench.
The pawl assemblies are limited in their clamping abilities.
If you over tighten them, then they no longer clamp the
flipper paddle shaft. You might have to replace your lift and
right pawl assemblies. In a nutshell, pawl assemblies
are good for two to three loosening and tightening
against the flipper shaft before they start going bad.
What torque setting are you using?
Quoted from Pin_Guy:I torque it until it feels like I should stop then I go another 1/8 turn.
I know what you mean lol but somehow I feel like Captain Picard in your avatar reading on how to get the right "torque setting" using your non-scientific procedure guidelines.
Quoted from Goalie:Just joined the club. Is there a good guide to shopping the cannons? One of my cannons is really wobbly, and only shoots when it's turned all the way to the right, and the harness on the other looks like it has been patched multiple times. A lot of different color wires on that harness. Just want a good guide to take them apart rebuild and replace the harnesses.
I did my own and but here you can buy a replacement loom.

Quoted from Pahuffman:Ok here's the update: it looks great! This is pretty good quality vinyl. Took me about 1.5 hours from tear down to reassembly. The vinyl sticks well to the wood. I wrapped around about 1/2 in on all sides on the back.
Looks excellent! Well done.I think I have to copy this lol.
Quoted from Zitt:Thanks for ripping off an original mod and making it inferior. Class act all the way. You're paying Nycon a royalty, right?
This forum is for people who like STTNG pinballs and topics related to it. Your commercial driven biased opinions don't belong here.
For the record my decals are not inferior in any way. As a matter of fact they are superior. I have seen the laser etched version and did no like them. The metal is unprotected and goes dull over time. My decals are fully laminated for the brushed metal to stay shiny for ever. They can also absorb ball hits much better. The artwork resolution of mine is also far superior. And thirdly the adhesion film I use is the best money can buy. In regards to "ripping off" I find it quite hilarious that you have stolen, reproduced and sold the original Star trek artwork but claim royalties for those stolen images for yourself and your friend. Get real Mr.Zitt!
Quoted from Pin_Guy:Counterstrike! Where's my popcorn?

Sorry I couldn't help myself ...
Quoted from Zitt:Sure let's get real.
You couldn't even be bothered to come up with original work... so how can it be:when it's obvious to everyone who is paying attention that you exactly copied everything from the Nycon design. It's obviously a SCAN of the Nycon layout. So you are saying you painstakingly created every piece of art by yourself AFTER receiving the parts from me? You couldn't even be bothered until recently to "change" your print from black and white exact copy to "somewhat" color.
Look... I participate in this thread. You don't. My commercial bias is well founded.
Sure it's just "coincidence" that you posted your blatant copy after I mentioned Nycon's were on sale on my site after saying how much I enjoyed Star Trek: Picard.I'll let the community figure out for themselves if your product is "superior". It's obvious to anyone that you didn't have this "idea" until you received an original set.
Lies. The material laser etch by Nycon is a bushed metal laser plastic. It can't go "dull" as you put it.
My original set still looks exactly the same over 1.5 years later. Do you live in an atmosphere of HCl? :rolleyes:Product positioning. You had to laminate your stickers because
1) Yours are thin garbage... you had to make them resilent to avoid scratches by a fingernail.
2) Inkjet prints smear when people touch them... especially on this type of material. You have to laminate your stickers to keep the quality "on par" with Nycons.LOL. Ball Strikes? On the outside of a VUK housing... On a switch bracket above a ramp?
Man, I don't want to play your misadjusted pinball machines.That's right; because you're a material expert. You've tested your Nycon sample chemically and know there is something wrong with it?
Product positioning.Pot... hello kettle.
I'm not sure I'd be saying that given you literally scanned a Nycon copy and inkjet print them to sticker paper. You couldn't even be bothered to come up with an original design.
Congrats; you win the argument. It's obvious you have a superior product in every way. Bravo. :rolleyes:
I'm done defending Nycon's product to this "commercially biased" copy-cat. I'll let the community decide if they want to support the original designer or the copycat. For the record; I don't make these product. Nycon - the original artwork artist does. I import them from Nycon. So; I support the original artist.
Dude you are out of control! I have never seen that much BS in one post! This forum is for STTNG fans not for your rants. Get a life.
