I’m trying to be patient while I wait for my Premium. Watching the news of delivery of Pros and LEs (and Eliva) while the premiums get pushed back is maddening.

Quoted from imagamejunky:Yes. It's in the adjustments menu. Set it to low or off
Thank you! Found it. Maybe the dog will stop running from the dinos now! 
Quoted from Royale-W-Cheese:I am gong to do the same...did you go off or low?
OFF! I couldn’t stand the sound. It always sounded to me like the sound system shorting out or overloading!
Quoted from GamerRick:Yes very annoying electronic fake knocker sound. I have it off on all my pins.
I wish there was a game related call out or sound effect for the match sound. I like the crashing glass sound on my WOZ.
My premium arrived last Wednesday. I’ve been too busy to post about it! Perfect right out of the box with additions of PinStadium lights (on Hovers), art blades, side armor, amber plunger, external subwoofer and Pinovators PinSub Subwoofer kit. This is a fantastic game and it is forcing me to become a better shooter, aiming my shots and planning my strategies.

Yesterday, my left ramp/trex opto suddenly stopped working on my JP premium. On closer inspection I think found the problem. Part of the post on the right side of the entrance to the ramp is missing leaving the opto vulnerable to bashing. I don’t think it was ever there since there are no “spare parts’ floating around the playfield or cabinet. I have contacted Stern and they are sending parts.

The missing screw on top of that post allowed the clear plastic roof to rise, and the ball is catching just enough air going up the ramp to jump the bottom of the opto beam. Same screw came loose on mine, with the same result. Tightened it down and it's back to 100% registering.
While you're in there, I'd remove the black plastic spacers on top of those posts. One on the right already fell off and is either hiding on the playfield or slid down into the trough and fell into the cabinet. Missing screw is somewhere in the game too.
Thanks. I don’t think that’s quite what’s happened here. The opto is definitely dead. There is no response using the coil test diagnostic. I tested the other optos and they are all working. There is about a half inch of air between the missing part of the post and the clear plastic roof.
Quoted from heyitsjoebob:That same screw and spacer came out on mine as well. Tightened it down and all is good on my end.
Thanks! I found the spacer but so far no screw. I'm still looking.
Quoted from CoolCatPinball:GET RID OF THE STOCK BLACK STERN RUBBERS AND POST SLEEVES. See that black crud on your guide? That's from the rubbers and post sleeves. It's all over your balls and playfield most likely. Swap them out and clean everything. The stock black rubbers/post sleeves are crap
What do you recommend? Titans?
