I'm not sure that I've ever gotten an email response. A package just shows up one day....

Hey guys, my WOZ keeps blowing a fuse after the monkey locks the ball in the castle. Once the ball is locked it will kick out the next ball and allow me to play but once I drain that the machine starts looking for a lost ball and never releases the one from the castle. Has anyone had that switch short out that fuse?

I know that fuse is shared by a lot of things so I disconnected the shaker motor first based on some other posts regarding this same fuse but it still blew on the first game after the disconnect.

Is there a way to disable the monkey mech from the menu for testing? (not at home right now to test)

Thanks.
Mike

So - how do I pay for what I want to order then lol. His site says email him to place an order...

He will email you an invoice and a link to pay him.
Cliff is really good about all of this.

Send him an email for what you want. He'll respond with an invoice, you pay, and a package shows up. Sometimes it takes several months so you have to be patient, but you'll get it. He's a one man show and it takes some time.

Mylar is not going to work, this thing takes a licking and does stop ticking. Please for the love of the playfield get an edge protector.

Does the fuse blow in device test, monkey test?
You can move the monkey a little at a time to see exactly when the fuse blows, if it does blow there.

Does the fuse blow if you test the single door?

Even gorilla tape wont protect it.
Steel is the only way.

Thank you

Thanks. Munchkinland is definitely getting some Cliffy steel along with the VUKs and saucers. Magnets will get mylar rings. I'm on the fence about the shooter lane. The game serves a ball to the shooter lane SO gently, unlike my other games. Maybe just mylar for the ball serve area?

I can move the monkey in the test and it doesn't blow the fuse. I'll test the door but need to pick up more fuses.

So you don't think it's the switch that tells the machine there's a ball locked? Because it blows before rescue multiball starts and the single door hasn't activated. Are the double doors tied to the same fuse?

I have 10,000 plays on my WOZ. All HUO.

No wear near the magnets as long as they are just a hair higher than the playfield.
No wear on the rollovers.

Wear in the throne room saucer.
Wear in the shooter lane.
Massive wear on the munchkin playfield edge.
Some wear showing now at the inlane drop points.
Some wear showing in the state fair balloon pop area.

So, Cliffy's on munchkin edge, shooter lane and throne room.

If it was the monkey, it should blow in test.

Does the door test blow the fuse?

It might be something else near there or a bare/broken/shorted wire.
Or the ball is resting on something bare or broken?

The doors are on the 20v system and do draw a bit of power.
Might be a bad motor drawing too much power?

Might be a short under the castle playfield.

Just guessing here.
More info and a closer inspection is in order.

Thank you - EXACTLY the sort of real world test data I was looking for. I'll add the shooter lane cliffy to my order. I'll also give the balloon area some custom mylar before too long - it is a pop bumper nest after all. Makes sense that it should eventually wear without protection.

I emailed an order a few days ago and followed up the next day. He emailed me back and sent me an invoice. Sometimes you just need to email him and ask if he got the first one.

He is extremely busy now with all of the amazing new games coming out!

I know someone with a very early ECLE that put mylar strips on the edge of the Munchkin mini PF and it has no damage at all after thousands of plays. I recommend the metal cliffy one for sure but if you get a game and can't wait for Cliffy to get you his edge protector it does work better than you'd expect.

Sounds like an easy enough temporary solution that will be better than nothing while I await a proper cliffy.

WOZ fans, I just sold my Woz standard
Which was beautiful and had a direct print etc. is it me ? Or am I the only one that really likes the YBR edition ?
I think the yellow wire forms look great
Yes it’s expensive but I paid $9k for a Munsters LE and dumped it. I’m
A huge B/W fan, JJP and American pinball
Because of build quality
Might pull the trigger on YBR ??

Do what makes you happy.

Hi Guys,

About to get my hands on a Resue Edition here in Australia and have started to get some mods.
I really like the castle and also the tornado, however I’m concerned that the tornado may actually cover up the castle? What you guys think? I can’t really see, many pictures from the players point of view.

Also, looking for a witch replacement (as original one isn’t that great) I know there were some people that made some different models, but seems like no one sells them anymore. Anyone here with a spare one they would consider selling to me?

Thank guys!

So I have the tornado and have never thought of it as an obstruction fits well for the size, I would get it.

Even without a monkey???

VIRTUAL LOCK! It's all about the virtual lock..............said no person that plays pinball.......ever.

Does anyone know the part number for the GI light pipes used in WOZ? I lost one somehow (I keep expecting it to turn up but so far it has not) and would like to order a replacement but can't find it listed in the parts manual.

Joined the club today! Received my NIB Emerald Green LE and it's working flawlessly. And has a monkey! :p I got this from automated services. What's interesting is that even though the build date on the machine was 2015, it has 2.0 boards. Love that NIB smell!

Box even has a label that says 2.0 boards.

Downstairs, and now it's escalera lift time! Escalera purchased through the one and only ZMeny from Flip N Out pinball. Worth its weight in gold I swear.

Automated updated their older stock with 2.0 kits. I too have an escalera bought from Flip n Out and love it. Congrats on the new game!

Good choice man, I just got one of these guys in January and I’m so happy as I was thinking of waiting for the YBR edition. The color is awesome and 2.0 lighting system is the way to go, have fun on your new adventure.

Oh and huge thank you to MK6PIN for help

Technically I guess, yes, since they can shuttle games down in groups and have the kits installed at the factory.

Sweet!!!! Mike has always done right by me....you've got a great machine, and Lloyd to help w any issues. Best combo in the biz....enjoy!!!...mark

Always happy to help pinbuds.....(if I can)...

Not sure what that game is but its not an LE

Doesn't have the Timber apron signed

whats it say on the back

It is Automated’s green version. Only they sell it.

ok so a standard edition with green Trim then

Yup

It’s a nice version for those that want the green but missed out on the ECLEs.

Not exactly.

Has invisiglass, shaker, powder coated etc. It has everything the original ECLE has except for the wood apron and direct printed cab. It does use the standard topper.

Guys I’m deciding on yellow brick edition the only thing missing is the flying monkey ? Man I like flying monkey

Get the RR with 2.0 boards. Has the monkey, looks great and is 2k cheaper.

Had a minor issue with my WOZ - bad/broken solder joint on the haunted forest skill shot caused several other switches to fail too. Resoldered the wires and all is good again. Thanks to LTG for the helping hand too.

Got my invoice from cliffy this morning, so once he catches up I'll have cliffys for the munchkin playfield edge and castle playfield edge.

I just don't understand why you'd pay an additional $2K just for the yellow trim and glittery playfield. I really hope it is not for exclusivity or collectability because JJP has proven they will run it again and again if there is cash to be made in doing so. My advice is buy a standard or RR new or go find a used one of any of the previous additions - you'll still have the monkey, the physical ball lock that comes with it and you'll save some significant $$.

This. I think automated MIGHT have one left. If not, they have their Emerald Green LE like the one I bought.

PS. my monkey hasn't given me any monkey business

The castle playfield should be protected by the walls, does your version not have them installed?

That switch is right near the edge so can take damage when you are lifting and lowering the playfield. I had a wire snap off on mine. Make sure the switch has enough clearance, and if not, gently bend the contacts out of the way.

The flying monkey always makes me smile every time, not sure how I would feel about paying more and missing out on the monkey.

Looks like the RR are sold out. Just the emerald green LE, as he calls them, are left.

What was the price on the green "LE"?
