I'm glad everyone is psyched about this update! I JUST bought one of these and it's being delivered on Sunday.
Now to find someone who's willing to part with their topper...

Hey guys,
Just got my TMNT last week and I'm having an issue with some weird behaviour.
It's happened a few times so it's not a fluke; when the game goes into TP multiball and is played for any length of time and all the balls are drained the game acts like there is still one ball in play even though there isn't. after a bit it goes into ballsearch and dumps out the 3 captive balls in the van and launches new balls into the van. I can play the balls that are dumped from the van but it continues to think there is 1 more ball than is actually there so every time all the balls drain the turn won't end (Because it thinks there's a ball stuck somewhere or still in play) and the whole thing starts again.
Has anyone else experienced this? I assume it's either a switch or an opto that isn't registering but I'm not sure where to start looking.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Quoted from plasticbugs:This is sometimes a symptom of magnetized balls causing them to stick together in the trough and not registering. Could be an opto, but may be as simple as replacing the balls.
I’ll give that a shot and report back.
Thanks!!
Quoted from azur3:Also do update your code if you haven‘t already. An early version had a bug that led to this behaviour.
Ok, so I switched in new balls and that seemed to work for a short time. 4 games in and as soon as I got to Turtle Power multi ball It happened again.
So I’m guessing it’s not magnetized balls.
Code was updated as soon as it was released.
Any other suggestions?
I appreciate the help!
So far, I’ve checked all the optos in the van & trough and everything between the trough & van and everything registers in test. I also flashed a new SD card just in case something happened during the update process.
I’m going to try to swap out opto boards with my JP prem to see if there’s any change.
It seems like this issue isn’t unique to my machine but I haven’t been able to find anyone’s solution yet.

Quoted from BaxterStockman:How are you adjusting the shaker? All the allen wrenches that I have that fit in the hole aren't strong enough to turn it at all. Or am I doing it wrong? Already looks like they're a little offset. But it sure makes a rattle when it goes off. Looking to tone it down a bit.

Found a torch screw that fit. It broke. [quoted image]
Is that a torx bit?

Quoted from Cwells3290:I have Cliffy’s installed on the shooter lane and the outhole. Only place to get them is by emailing Cliff through his website to place an order. Usually a few weeks turnaround time. I believe I paid around $30 for the set.
Cliffy is backed up around 6-8 weeks and has been for a little bit now. He just finally got out another order I made in early Nov.
I also bought Cliffys TMNT kit and for some reason he does not include the 2 universal switch slot cliffys in he kit so those need to be added to your order as well.

Finally installed the custom IC sticker on my TMNT LE that Mr_Tantrum made!!
Looks Amazing!!!
IMG_6359 (resized).jpegQuoted from brzezicki:I have 7 of the top 20 of pinsides "top 100" including 3 of the top 5, and TMNT is one of my favorite pins. beautiful, and just a ton of fun. reminds me of the arcade game "robotron".. insanely hard and fast but so fun.
how did you order these? I did'nt see them in the pinside shop under TMNT, and though "Mr Tantrum" has a business page I didn't see anything in his store.
they look great.

Agreed. Love it!!
Hit Chris up, he actually made this one from a scan of the original plastic that came in my LE.
I saw one he did for someone’s IMDN and I wanted see if he had a TMNT one. He didn’t but was able to make this one from my scan. I’m sure he can make more of them if you’re looking.
Quoted from acons017:Do you have a link to where I can purchase this IC sticker?
Send Mr_Tantrum a message. He will take care of you.
