My game is (and has since I've had it) throwing an error at Switch #46 "Right Ramp Exit". Upon recent inspection, it seemed a solder had come loose. I resoldered it, but still nothing. Wondering if the diode is soldered in the correct orientation, or if the colored wires are soldered on the wrong sides, or if maybe the switch is bad? Any suggestions welcome. Picture below shows the switch and the playfield picture is to reference the exact switch I'm talking about.

Ran a switch test...nothing seemed to happen. I resoldered all joints on the switch too. I think I'm convinced it's a bad switch. The part # of this switch is 5647-12133-04, which appears to be discontinued everywhere except some guy on eBay selling them for $30... How do I go about determining an acceptable alternate? I don't mind bending the wire form to fit the game, just want it to work the same.

Looks like plenty of similar options on Marco I can find. Thanks for the help! I'll post an update once I try to install the new switch.

Just got my new switch installed...it's still not working. Can any Mousin' owner take a picture of this switch on their machine? I'd like to make sure this is wired correctly.

Well, my "check switch 46" error went away so maybe it is working...as far as I can tell, it has no audio cue in the game so I can't really tell if it's doing anything or not. Going into switch edge test, it does not register. No ideas currently...

Thank you! Does this switch do anything in the game when you play? Does it trigger a noise? Don't suppose could you check it switch edge test to see if/how it registers?

Strange... Then what does this switch do in your game? In mine this one makes a noise and awards a cheese letter. I believe this is the left ramp made switch but the right and left lanes both wind up here so I'm not sure.

I have not check continuity...i could try that. Oddly tho it seems my switch 37 is registering regardless of which entry switch is activated. Maybe the system will default to activating 37 if 46 isn't activated even if right entry ramp is activated... But my switch error doesn't exist anymore so I won't put too much stake in this but I will check continuity and troubleshoot some more.

It does look that way but there is a small space between them. At least that's how I remember it. Regardless when I resoldered it there definitely is a gap now.

Future me here... My switch 46 error came back so I decided to give this another go and the solution was so stupid, it's almost embarrassing. First off, the new switch works fine and is wired correctly. I used the actuator (arm) from the switch I took off and when I put it on the new switch I put it on the tabs circled in blue. Because it's so close to the actual switch, the arm wasn't actually pressing the button down when the ball ran over it. I moved it back to the tabs circled in red and adjust the arm slightly and now it works perfectly. It's always the simplest things...
