Quoted from PinMonk:Says you have a short in a GI (general illumination) bulb on topside of the playfield around the mid-playfleld area. Remove the GI bulbs and re-insert them one at a time to isolate which one (or ones) went bad.
Thanks bud I’ll check it out tomorrow and see if I can pinpoint the problem. I didn’t get that far I was trying to fix another pin of mine.. to many pins and to many problems not enough time lol 
Can some give me a little help and take a picture of there node board 9 connection wanna see specially connection 12 & 13 curious on what everyone else has I’m trying to troubleshoot. Thanks in advance
Quoted from Phbooms:I'm not sure I'll be much help since these are from a pro and nothing is plugged into 12 and 13 but hope it helps

Thank you, but I need a premium or a LE I’m assuming there all the same but not sure..
Well fellas I was able to have a easy fix to my problem with GI issue node board 9. Thanks to pin monk he’s truly a great asset to this community he help me pin point my issue it was a simple fix because of his Guidance .. you rock pin monk 
Quoted from BallyKISS1978:What was the problem?
I was getting a error message GI over-surge on board 9 here’s a pic of what was my issue Incase someone comes across the same problem I had to check every GI to shake out the problem. Not actual picture hope it helps.

Lol I love that show if it was G4 tv?? Yeah she’s not the best actress but I think she a cutie..
Quoted from JodyG:I seem to have more trouble with the pizza disc spinner sending balls SDTM than I do with the left outlane. I really don't care for disc spinners, and I would probably buy a TMNT if it didn't have one. Id be fine if it only ran at the start of multiball.
You have to remember the pro disc only spins one direction which probably the root cause, the premiums and LE spin both ways which I think helps it a lot more.
I personally own a premium I can’t complain about STDM drains on the Contrary it has save me many times.
Quoted from azur3:One more reason to go for TMNT: Just today I played my Game of Thrones again and it made me realize how much TMNT has improved my pinball skills in just a few weeks, because it forces you to. GoT is a lot more forgiving on bad aim and random shooting. With my new "Ninja Skillz", I scored 1bn on GoT straight away in my first game after 4 weeks (GC is 3.5bn)
I Agree. When I play turtles and after getting my ass kick and also kicking some ass back I step up to walking dead and it seems forgiving keep in mind people complain walking dead is a difficult pin.. 
some pins just make you a better player and help you were you might lack in skill to progress as a better player.

Wow that topper was a big let down. Specially with the lighting effects. When I get home today I’m going to start on my own topper mod and hopefully spend less that $300 and would be better than this.
So here’s my topper in progress pics
6 TMNT figures, pixie glass, figure stands, double stick tape, RGB lights tap into 12 volt to illuminate the figures, L-plastic to trim and hide lights.
I also order a sewer manhole cover for a backdrop and a turtles emblem to mount on top of the sewer as well, hopefully I can finish over the weekend when everything arrives and I’m still under $225..can someone help how to tap into the machine to make the RGB strip light have a flasher effect when shots are made or flashers activate something in that sort??? That’s something I haven’t figured out yet.

Put a red armor going for the Raphael LE 
Also completed the topper all the parts came in added some RGB to give it a light show, no interaction unfortunately. Was hoping to figure out how to tap into the flasher but not to sure. Let me know what you guys think.

Quoted from atrainn:Picked my turtles parts up from my powder coater yesterday! I went with illusion green ice. This is going to look sick!

Looks good we’re did you guys buy the lollipop side rails from? I seen some at pinball life but they look like if they’re notched out by the button area not sure if those are the ones people order from.
Quoted from DaddyManD:Several of us have relayed to Stern that the shaker effect at start of Ninja Pizza Multiball is too severe. Hoping they tone it down in next update or give option to only shut that in a "moderate us" setting. A few folks say they enjoy it, but we have shut our shaker off completely until a fix comes.
Apparently the people who complain about the shaker being to rough haven’t played Ghostbusters the shaker is 2x what turtles shakes it literally shakes your body lol. I personally like the shake effect and n turtles it’s not even bad what’s the point of having a shaker if you want minimum effect. Dwights likes having his games have good shaker effects which I like.
Quoted from DaddyManD:I LOVE shake effects...this effect at Pizza MB start is shaking along with a super loud grinding sound like the machine is being chewed up. Was thinking it was the motor but its not. Anyways, to each their own. An option to disable or tone down would be nice so all can enjoy it how they like.
There is a setting already under adjustments for shaker. Maximum, medium, and so forth..

Quoted from Yoko2una:And I haven't heard one person say "I couldn't live without the pizza disc spinning the other direction as well".
I have the premium and it’s really nice able to control the Diverter and able to set up what ever shot you want to combo or finish a mode very nice touch, left ramp nonstop all day feels good
Quoted from freddy:Real players don’t need a stink’in diverter !
Well thank you for taking a dump on me, have a merry Christmas I will go and enjoy my turtles now..

Quoted from Norcalpin:Hot damn guys....just about everyone and their grandma is selling their TMNT lol. I was able to play at a local pin parlor yesterday and had the chance to play at least 8 tables. I must say TMNT stacked up really well against the competition. I keep reading that the "wives" don't like it, lol I guess our ladies just can't relate to cowabunga.
I think people bought the game because it’s a great theme and family friendly but realize it’s Quite challenging, I’m assuming kids and wife get Frustrated and they sell for that reason. I honestly love turtles it’s super fun specially when you get into a flow fest with all shots it has, I might get Scold for saying this but I like it better than avengers that’s just my opinion.

Quoted from dung:Been playing my le. Like the game but fuck borg for the lair shot have had the glass off for half an hour now. Shot geometry is bad.
Really!!! the shoot isn’t that hard I can hit that shot with both flippers it just takes concentration doesn’t mean you have to bash Mr borg. It’s a great game just selll the game if it bothers you that much
Quoted from dung:(edited)
If i was going to sell the game it would be for the horrible pf quality. In both terms of the grainy nature and the clearcoat pooling. Both of which are ridiculous on a 9k plus collector piece, but this is stern and stern gives no shits because fanboys will buy regardless. My saving grace is i dont have near 9k in this.
Wow, thank you and good day....
