Quoted from jamesdeloris:Well it looks like only me with this problem and apparently no one else , save spencer, has ever had this issue. Let me state the facts again. The very second the Winkie drops the machine starts making a sound, like, bang,bang,bang. It continues with this sound until the Winkie goes up and it stops that very second. I have checked the connections in that area and they seem to be secure. I have worked on the switch several times. I don't believe it is the castle gates. The Winkie sticker is not curling. I contacted jjp nine days ago but have not heard back. I,ve had two or three good suggestions that I am still working on without success. Thanks for the help.
It's obviously the winkie reset coil or switch. Something is either preventing the reset or the switch is sticky...take a close look at it and have someone fire it in test mode with the target down.
