I am in! Yo Taxi!

I read in another thread CPR is going to put out a repro mirrored backglass for Taxi soon! Not a translate, and actual back glass. Its going to be really hard not to dip into the pin fund to get one of those!

Seriously, going to take all of my willpower not to buy one. If my Taxi was in much better shape I probably would, but cabinet is a little beat and PF does have some wear. At least that is what I am telling myself so I keep saving my $$$. Not complaining, love my Taxi and it is in fine condition for its age.

Hmmm nothing of that nature. I finally got the spinout to shoot past all of the awards back to the measily 5k on a full plunge (previously I would get maybe to the fourth award on a full plunge) so I wont even think about touching it until it acts up again.

I kind of don't understand exactly where you are talking about, can you take a picture?

Ahhhh thats actually called the slinghot, the jet bumpers would be the three red things in the top middle of the playfield. You may need a new rubber there, but hard to tell. Can you take more picture down low from playfield level showing where the ball gets stuck? I want to see what kind of posts are there, the position of the ring, and anything else that may be missing.

Your Taxi looks really nice BTW.

Lift the playfield and on the inside of the cabinet where the shooter rod is there is a metal plate with three screws, loosen those screws and you can move the whole shooter rod up, down left and right. Try playing with it, it may take quite a few adjustments to get it right. Try and get the rod tip to hit the ball dead center. I had to play with mine for about an hour but now on a full plunger the ball goes through all of the awards and back to 5,000 which I think is the way to make it a true skill shot.

is it like a singular "ding" or a prolonged ringing? Mine does the latter.

The bell is adjustment 45 in the adjustment menu, the only one I know off the top of my head. I turn it on when guests are over and off when I play at night by myself so I do not wake up my 2 year old son. Check to make sure its turned on.

Now a lot of operators, bartenders, pizza parlor owners etc did not know how to do this via the menu and at some point that ringing bell pissed them off and they disabled it in the easiest way they could figure out how. If yours is inoperable take a good look at it at the actual bell since thats about as far as they would have figured it out. There is a good chance they simply cut the wires to it, or bent the hammer way back so it would not hit as hard etc...

I will check back, mine is all Leds done very tastefully, if no one reports back with pics I will take some
