Wow, I wish I read this thread before attempting to replace my motors. I would agree it is not well designed. It works, but when something doesn't, well it isn't a fun experience.

I found out the head bolts are soft lol. Don't even bother with using them. Replace as suggested in this thread.

I did get them in and they were partially working (one door was dragging a bit) so I pulled the playfield back out. I attempted to adjust the plate height. Now my doors soft close. The stop mech wont pull down. Maybe I damaged the coil? All wiring looks right. I've tried in both door test and coil test. Anyone else have this issue before? It is incredibly difficult to diagnose problems live when you can't see anything below the playfield.
