So after finally unboxing my TOM yesterday from a 5 1/2 year storage and fixing the stupid battery issue of me being stupid and leaving the batteries in, almost everything seems to be working including my motorized tiger saw. The problem is the trunk is not registering any ball hits. Its been awhile and I have no idea what to look at for this. I believe there is an adjustment under there for the sensor or something and that the light should flash on and off when the beam or something is broken. Could someone assist? Everything worked perfect before it went into storage.

Three eddy sensors - adjust them all. Left outlane, right outlane, and in front of trunk. TOM likes them all working good.

Under the playfield are the small eddy sensor boards. With a LED and potentiometer. Turn the potentiometer until the LED goes on and then back just until the LED goes out.

Check with a ball in switch edge test.

Thank you, I actually found an old thread on this a minute after posting this. Weird I searched on here and didn't find it and then did a google search and it came up. All three adjusted and working now.
