I just need to get my drop targets fixed and my magnet is not working right. I fully shopped it last year and it's a keeper.
I have quite a bit of experience now with the drop targets since I last looked at it. Hopefully I can resolve it.

Quoted from RMHighScore:I am having trouble getting my SWT to drop the targets when the X-Wing cannon is loaded. I know the drop targets are all working. The signal just doesn't seem to get there all the time. Also the magnet diverter sometimes releases the ball to soon sending the ball back down the ramp. Does anyone have thoughts on this?
I have the same two problems, have not gotten around to fiddle with the drops. I did buy a new magnet but not yet installed.

Quoted from Pinmot:Regarding the diverter... here is some help from a 2003 posting on the rec.games.pinball newsgroup. I made this change on my machine and it helped improve reliability. I'll provide a quote and a link to the original posting.
Quote - "I got an excellent solution from Chas at Stern Pinball's Tech Support line. He recommended installing a small rubber ring on each of the shafts that the gun assembly moves on. The rings get installed at the end where the carriage rests between the carriage and the frame. This positions the carriage that much closer to the left ramp making the ball transfer reliable. My game hasn't missed a beat since I made the change and was extremely simple. Thanks to Chas and Stern Pinball's tech support group. Mike O."

Did you gun assembly work in test mode? Mine does in test, but during gameplay it does not want to go all the way back. I may have to try the rubber trick.

I cannot for the life of me get the drop targets to drop for the multi ball shot. They work pretty well in test mode and all my reed switches are good. They used to work when I first got the game. Even had the CPU gone through from Boryguard.
