Hi Guys:

Brand new machine and, after 10 games working as it should, the following came on the screen at power up:

Gobstopper Hole - Check Device - Malfunction Detected
Check matrixed switch #51, Gobstopper Lockup #1 (at kicker) (Stuck open)

So, gobstopper hole is stopping at 9 o'clock position, instead of 12 o'clock. Tested opto and all OK. I can move the disk by hand, so it is not binding.

Switch 51 is dead but I know the switch is good. To be sure, I changed it with a known good one but still dead. Does not activate in switch test, just the red indicator that switch is bad.

I pushed and pulled every plug and socket imaginable on both the underside of the playfield and in the backbox. Nothing made any difference.

For some reason the gobstopper hole has now started defaulting to 12 o'clock position (as I think it should) but never moves to 6 o'clock, to allow a ball in. The target in front of the gobstopper disk (which I think is supposed to activate the disk) works fine and is registering, when hit.

Help, please!!

Quoted from djsolzs:

Been having issues with gobstopper hole myself. It’s rotating an extra 90 degrees. I can go in to menu and manually move it back to correct position.. then it happens again.
I read through this thread abc confirmed my gears are not loose or falling down and the Allen nut seemed fine.
Anyone have this as well? Doesn’t seem like same issue previously reported

Try a factory reset and let us know if that takes care of it.

Hi Guys:

New Wonka owner here and what an amazing game!

When the machine says 'shoot the TV', where is the TV? I have looked high and low on the playfield but I can't find the TV. What am I missing?

Thanks.

Roger

Quoted from zaphX:

The wonkavision in the upper right. It's a big TV.

Thanks, guys....

I had a feeling the TV might be the Wonkavision but why does the machine say 'shoot the TV' and, at other times 'shoot Wonkavision' if they are one of the same thing?

Quoted from Meri-cah:

Just set up my new build Wonka LE. Built 12/2021.
Question….. my sound in very very tinny. Very high pitch. No bass and very uncomfortable to listen to. Couldn’t find anywhere in the settings for sounds control. I have WoZ and DI along with several other machines and none sound this terrible.
Does Wonka just have horrible audio or anyone think there’s a problem? All speakers are working, just very high treble in all including the sub

I just played my first game, using a pair of Bose noise cancelling headphones. All I can say is wow, wow, wow!

Guys, if you have the LE or CE, plug in some high quality headphones. It's a different experience!

Quoted from flipperstick:

My headphone jack does not work on my CE and the volume control is wired backwards.

My headphone jack didn't work at all on a DI LE that I used to have.

Found out that the plug behind the jack had been connected upside down. Did a 180 on the plug and it worked fine!

Quoted from hiker2099:

To each there own. I like playing in the dark and even though I have the machine turn to bright I’m still losing the ball sometimes. They are definitely expensive but they seem easy enough to install or transfer.
Anyone else here have Pinstadium on their Wonka?

I have Pinstadiums on my WW LE. Great upgrade and highly recommended!
