Hey all,
Just finished restoring my WhiteWater pinball and putting it back together but there's one problem that seems to constantly plague my game. The No Way Out kicker likes to fire extra times, usually just after popping a ball up. Sometimes it's one extra time, sometimes two extra times, sometimes multiple times.
The optos appear to work but there was one time one of them (I believe the center one) kept reading open. I haven't been able to reproduce that issue. This mech is confusing, it looks like a coil followed by a spring-loaded popper. It seems fine, but I have no way of knowing.
What do I do? Do I just replace all of the optos or get an entire new mech assembly or is there something else going on? It's impossible to test the optos while the solenoid is firing, which is usually when the problem happens.
