I set up my Tron LE last weekend. I noticed that some of the lights(under inserts) were flickering. The affected lights included the C L U, the red special, the shoot again and up as far on the playfield as the Flynn lights.

I contacted Stern and they seemed aware of the problem. They are sending me a harness kit that they say will fix the problem.

Have any other Tron LE purchasers experienced this problem? Have any purchasers seen a delay in the shipment of the machine?(maybe Stern doing an in-house fix before shipping more machines).

Mine hasn't shipped yet. Hopefully this issue will be fixed before they send it on it's way.

Just separate the wires away from the 24VAC and it should take care of the (interference) problem...
Also the 1.3 code has an update, addressing the flickering as well.
Good luck proscript!

I installed the 1.3 code and I think I saw an improvement but there's still flickering. I will wait for Sterns fix in the mail since I'm away from the machine for a couple weeks or I would be doing your suggestion right now!

Thanks NimblePin!

Basically you need to make sure the wires leading to the LED boards are away from any coils. Once you get them away from them the flickering will go away.

I'm glad to hear this problem is resolvable. Thanks everybody!
