Quoted from LOTR_breath:

Can anyone explain how the ramp diverter is supposed to work?
We play one on location and it seemed to work correctly at first, now it is hit or miss. Sometimes it will divert the ball to the hole on the third ball lock. Most of the time it never diverts, even at the beginning of MB. I swear I remember when the game was new, it would divert ALL 3 ball locks to the hole.
Last night we put the game into solenoid test mode and activating "left ramp diverter" caused the gate at the top right near the end of the shooter lane to open/close. Sometimes the ramp diverter would twitch as well. I remember reading somewhere that the diverter solenoid is just piggy backed onto another circuit? Any help or suggestions appreciated.

The Pro I play on location behaves the same way. Most of the time it doesn't divert but every once in a while it does with no real rhyme or reason. I don't think it ever diverts before SFMB. I usually get 3-4 shots in while the Intro is going off.
