Willy Keeps Gobstopping

Hi Lloyd first time post! My issue on my Willy Wonka LE is that when the game goes into the gobstopper multiplier it goes off by vibration of the upper left flipper or shaker motor. How do you adjust this to eliminate this? I can sit there with the ball in the shooter lane and advance the multiplier by continually hitting the left flipper doing nothing else! Please help

Hi Willy


There is a micro mini switch on the left side of the metal plate the ball hits. You'd adjust that like any micro mini switch that is too sensitive. Check first if you can turn the switch body by loosening the screws. If not, then gently bend the arm the metal plate hits a tiny bit away from the metal plate. Don't bend it over the body of the switch, you don't want to effect the flat part that pushes the tiny knob into the switch body. Bend it closer to the free end.


A tweak or two should do it.


Thank you,

LTG : )
