Really great video. Learned a few things along the way. Thanks for sharing!

So, my Gobstobber target stopped working. Got the dreaded target open error message. On closer inspection, the top of the switch simply broke off. See the pic below. The arrows highlight the end piece of the switch I found in my ball trough.

I’ve only had the pins for about 90 days. First real issue. Would something like this be covered under a parts warranty? And if so, would appreciate any guidance in how I go about getting a replacement switch. Is there a claim process with JJP?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Appreciate the help! Just opened a support case with JJP.

Wait a minute.....Jen DiCosmo Guarnieri.....could there be a more Italian name out there?!

Enjoy the game!

This is why I generally wait a couple of week before upgrading....on my pins and my iphone! Sometimes it pays to let the dust settle!!

Having the same issue occasionally. Only thing that frees it is a ball search. Anyone else have a solution?

Been catching up on 400 posts in this thread. Such good reading. Stepped away from my WW for a bit, can’t wait to fire it up especially with the new (to me) beta available.

Anyone know where ZAPHX went? He’s brought so much to this thread with video and tips. Noticed, as I was reading two months of posts, his status changed to “inactive.”

Thanks, now I’ll be thinking about Oompa junk all day…..

Somewhat of a noob when it comes to mechanics and repairs but I’m trying to learn. Ran into an issue with upper right flipper and can use some guidance .

Initially i thought it was misaligned, popping up 1/4 or so from its base. I raised the playing field, adjusted by loosing the bolt holding the flipper and tightened it real tight. Thought that was it.

Now, it doesn’t appear to be an alignment issue rather it’s not returning to its base. If a ball hits it, it goes back to base position, but flip again and it’s stuck.

Intuitively I think I’ve got a spring issue and need to replace it? But wanted to check in case I screwed something up with the slight adjustment to the flipper.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the advice and the reference video zaphX (and great to see you again). I did pop in a new spring and it's retracting once again. However, when i hit a rather hard shot from the saucer up the camera ramp it will stick again. A tap or two on the flipper button and it retracts. So, I definitely have something binding - the new spring is just making it retract better. [And I do have a pretty good gap between the flipper and the playfield, as suggested]

Would this be my next move?

I'll check as suggested LTG....tomorrow. The wife is giving me the eye (aka the "it's time to stop tinkering with your toys" for tonight look).

It was indeed a coil sleeve issue - popped in a new sleeve and flipper is back to normal First time I've worked on a flipper - not as complicated as I made it out to be (in my head).

Thanks LTG zaphX and FlippinJB for the assist.

Couldn't agree more. Downloaded beta from WiFi last night (my first downloaded "update" - which by itself was awesome) and man, what a difference! Hit 15M on my second game - non-stop action and agree, the side quests kept it flowing.

Team Wonka,
Running into an issue with my Gobstopper lock-up kicker (the coil that pushes the ball to the Gobstopper Trough VUK). It's not firing with much power and the ball isn't making it to the VUK. It'll cycle several times and then the ball search will kick in.

Didn't see any available adjustment for the kicker, nor the Gobstopper VUK (which sometimes takes 2-3 attempts to get it up to the shooter lane). So maybe I actually have two problems!?

Any suggestions on how to troubleshoot?

As usual, thanks in advance.

You are correct - as usual - LTG. I was in Test. Assuming by your question I should be able to find coil adjustments in the Settings -Coils?

Found the Coil Settings screen and adjusted both up by 1. Working great now.

Once again, thanks LTG!

Is there a material difference between Beta 6 and update 2.0? Didn’t realize I needed to turn off the Beta update flag and download Beta 6 v. 2.0.

Could use some guidance. My WW isn’t powering up. Checked the AC connection to the wall and the back of the pin - no issues there.

I was out of town last week so one of my kids likely got us to this point (and failed to tell me).

Any suggestions on Where I should look first?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Pinballomatic ! That did the trick - powered back up and running fine. Who would of thought a paper clip would be the solution to jump starting my WW!

Team WW. Running into an issue with my ball trough. Six balls in the trough but they're not registering (ball search kicks in regularly). Changed out balls thinking they might have been magnetized - not the issue! Ran the trough test and found the attached. All test trough "buckets" 1-6 will turn green - momentarily - when a test ball enters the trough but then they all switch immediately back to yellow.

Welcome any guidance for troubleshooting the issue. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the tip. Reached out to JJP, Ken emailed some suggestions and resolved the issue. Loose connections to the trough. Back in business.
