Joining the club soon. My machine has a red start button instead of the green. Been searching the web to source a green with no luck. Who has them?? My last resort is to spray one green and clearcoat it.

Found. Thanks to a kind pinsider.

Going to post this question here too.

This may be a silly question. Had my Taxi for a couple weeks now and love it. I've noticed that it displays the jackpot value all the time, it never shows the "bonus meter" rolling animation.
I've combed through the manual and cant for the life of me find an adjustment for this.

What am I missing? ROM version?
Thx!

Quoted from Kneissl:

If you're running an led display, I had one that was wired wrong. You'd have to do a decent hack to fix it.

Yes, it's a Pinscore LED display. I sent them a message to see of there is a way to fix it.

SOLVED! Pinscore master displays have 2 external headers for slave displays. Taxi must be on the left side to work properly. It was plugged into the right. Works great now.

Taxi has been around for about a month now. The flippers "appear" to have been rebuilt by the previous owner. While they have enough power to make the ramp shots just fine, they seem a bit mushy. I cant hear the crack of the coil stop like I do on my Earthshaker.
Hard to explain, but I feel.they could be more responsive. I'm debating on doing another complete rebuild my way.
Thoughts?

Quoted from Flynnyfalcon:

If they are original flipper bracket (with the spring on the coil), upgrading to the newer WPC with “external” spring will give it more snap.
But yep, worth taking a look at the coil stops.

Thanks. I was actually considering switching to external springs. It does seem like the conical ones around the plunger bind up a bit.
