Issue 1: cracked solder joints on the light board with those bulbs? I had a similar issue with mine and reflowing the solder fixed it right up.

I use it at a couple different times.

The first is during single ball play, if I have a half ramp shot on the left ramp. On my machine, those tend to be screamers SDTM.

The other is during multiball start, I will shoot for goal with the manually plunged ball, and use magna save to get a cradle with the locked ball and the ball coming out from final draw. Then you can get two jackpots before having to cradle separate by hitting the extra ball button after your first jackpot. (Once per multiball you get one free jackpot relight from the EB button.)

I like the person who suggested using it to set yourself up for a striker shot for the extra ball, but I have also found that in that case, a good drop catch out of Final Draw will set you up just as well.

These are great; I'm going to add them to mine. Can someone recommend good printing procedures / card stock for a professional look?

Hi everyone,

Doing a flipper rebuild, and discovered that my right flipper doesn’t have the coil listed in the manual. The manual says that both flippers should be FL-11629, which is a blue coil. My right flipper is a FL-11630. (Red.)

Safe to assume the manual is always correct? Does anyone whose flippers are stock definitely have 2 11629s?

From googling, it appears that the 11629s (blue) are high strength, and the 11630s (red) are medium strength, which might explain why I get left ramp rejections, especially during long games.

Just looking for confirmation before I order a replacement coil. Thanks!

D’oh! I transposed what I typed out. Yes, the 11630 is the medium and 11629 is the high power. I’ll correct my original post, thx.

Sounds like enough folks have 11629 on the right that it’s correct. (Or, at least, not shattering ramps.)

I’ve had problems with left ramp shots dying above the pops when the diverter directs the ball to the right side; sounds like this is part of the cause. Nice when the fixes are easy, eh?

Thanks, everyone!

Interesting; I have the 11630 (red) on the right flipper, and have had trouble with left ramps for a while, now. I think the flippers were installed too tight against the bushing, because it was binding, but after fixing that, I still had problems during long games. I’m hopeful this fixes the problem!
