Quoted from jsa:Can someone tell me how this plastic mounts to the playfield or ramp:
It's riveted to a metal bracket that screws into the ramp. Do you need some pictures?

Quoted from Whitewater:Hi guys
I'm still working on my poor abused TOTAN that I picked up. But I need your help.
1) Missing ramp part?
I think the 'collect a jewel' ramp is missing a plastic or metal part near the entry on the right hand side (please see pictures) There are 2 screw holes but nothing screwed in. I can't find anything in the manual. Can anyone help me with a part number please?
2) I have read that the sword topper with light up jewels can plug directly into the game. Does anyone know where on the board that plug would go? or where the unused cable might be located ? (There does seem to be a few plugs that are not plugged into anything)
Thanks heaps
Not sure about the topper, but the plastic is here:
Buy two. I've broken one.
Quoted from Tim_Hanian:Look just above the 3 red target bank, on top of the other plastic.
Funny. Mine has that, and I don't think I've ever noticed it! Looks like an anti-ball trap plastic.

Quoted from jsa:I've been slowly tweaking/tightening up my TOTAN over the last couple months. I noticed that there are "guard plastics" on the top of the swirl ramp and near the entrance to that ramp...looking a little beat up. These plastics aren't for sale anywhere in the states, though I found a place in Australia that sells them. Just not a common part, I guess. Anyone find any more local sources?
Also, could someone post some photos of the ramp ends near the inlanes? I'm suspicious that my right ramp might be ending too high. Also, the ball seems to sometimes get stuck on the right inlane switch slot. I'm guessing this happens on all sorts of pinball machines if the ball is moving slow enough, but oddly haven't seen it before on my other two pins. Any thoughts on how to prevent it?
Can you take some pics of the plastics you’re talking about? I am pretty sure pinbits has all the clear plastics, but I wanted to be sure.
Quoted from jsa:Here is the first one:
Here is the second one:
Here is the spot my ball gets stuck on all the time:
Pinbits to the rescue!
As for the ball getting stuck, I haven't seen that. I will be home tomorrow again and I'll grab some pictures for you.

Sounds like their site is having an issue. I would email or call. They're great people and they'll certainly help you.

Quoted from denmark71:Im looking for some help with my Totan- the ball trough is constantly loading two balls or reloading a ball when in play. Any clue what I should be looking for to resolve this?
thanks
Yes. The optical boards in the trough. If you need help, I’m in SJ and can help you. Look at switch test and see how those trough switches are working.

I can check on my game tonight. If the current ring is too loose it can protrude out. Since the post locations didn’t change I would suspect the rubber.

Quoted from Ericpinballfan:Thanks a lot I'll check all that tomorrow. Wouldn't you know I have a big party at my house with about 40-50 people tomorrow. No Totan. Arabian is my only WPC 95 game. I'm almost certain that it's Q70 for some reason just decided not to work anymore, and I don't have any spares that are that size.
Maybe ping Pat Choy at Endless Pinball - maybe he has a spare.

Quoted from Haggy38:Hi guys,
I need your help, on the Swirl ramp the solenoid AE-30-200 stopped working, Marcos doesn't got it on stock but there's another one with the same part number, it will work? Pinball life has another one different so which one.....

Are you sure the coil is broken?
Quoted from Haggy38:Yeah unfortunately, it's melted, the last owner installed the wrong one, I did replace Tip102.
Gustavo
Ah, sounds like a legitimate failure! Thanks for the reply.

Quoted from Markharris2000:Hi all-
I have had a TOTAN for about ten years and it's in pretty condition. playfield clean, everything else working fine. Minor stuff mostly, but all three of the ramps have a few cracks so I am going to take swapping those in the next few weeks. I sourced the ramps but am looking for the swirl plastic which is a thin clear flat swirl that tops the extruded swirl ramp. I have only found it over at Pu-Parts in the UK, and they don't ship to the USA. (Its a $15 part). Anyone know of a source for it here in the USA? Should be an easy repro item.
Also, I never liked the dingy-looking metal ball guide mounted on the lower left side of the playfield which guides the ball down from the wire ramp behind the slingshot. Marco and other sell the stainless steel replacement, but I decided to clean up the one I had and found that Rustoleum #298537 paint is a perfect match for the mustard yellow used throughout the playfield. Primed the guide with etch primer, sprayed some paint, and it looks great. Just wanted to share this little tip.[quoted image]

Quoted from toddsolus:It looks like an entire switch matrix is out all of the switches on that matrix are out. left inlane, left outlane, mini standups, and one direction of the lamp as well as the bottom lock switch......
did I blow something up?
Maybe. But check for a broken wire under the playfield in common with the switches that are out.
Quoted from toddsolus:OK...I found the culprit. It was indeed a broken wire in the chain of the row. Thank you pintechev
Glad you got it fixed!
