Hi guys. I just got a nice TSPP but the upkicker coil to the couch playfield does not have enough power to consistantly get the ball up to it. Is there a stronger coil I can replace the standard one with? I already have the coils adjusted to maximum in the menu but it still cannot make the shot the majority of the time. Thanks for any advice.
It's common for the ball to not make it up there on the first kick. First thing I'd do before replacing the coil is make sure everything is aligned properly. It's likely the ball is hitting the side of the hole, preventing it from making it up cleanly. Make sure your upper playfield is on properly too.
No wear on the sleeve. Another buddy told me its probably the allignment issue too. I will work on it during the spring monsoons here in Michigan since its too cold and wet to do anything else!
Thanks much.
No allignment problems. I bent the fork on the switch and it improved. So that tells me its the switch, and now I recall having the same issue with a forked switch on my LOTR years ago. Switch ordered. Part #180-5116-01 if I ordered the correct part. I will post the results.
