My iceman ramp cycles during the game.

It activates, then swings across the playfield, as it approaches the lhs ramp stop it rubs against the wolverine claw then retracts.

It does this over and over, only locking into place across the playfield perhaps 1 out of 5 or so times.

Is this a common issue?

Is it caused with the ramp grazing wolverine?

Thanks.

It doesn't stop it, the ramp will go to the lhs and stay during test.

Both limit switches work.

When the ramp is moving to the lhs, it his the wolverine and activates his switch. Could that cause the ramp to cycle back?

It hits wolverine just enough to activate his switch, barely grazes his claws but enough to activate him.

I tried to loosen the set screw at the motor, and it's really tight so I stopped before I stripped out the hex.

I may try again or bend the ramp.

When I disconnected the switch on the wolverine, the ramp worked normally, well I've only had the game 3 days. In any case the ramp didn't cycle back and forth.

I put two 3/8 diameter flat washers on the post that holds the Storm ramp, on the LHS sling upper hold down.

That lifts the ramp and the metal piece that the iceman ramp lands on when it swings over.

Now the ramp clears the wolverine's claws.

Quoted from jorge5240:

How do you like Xmen?

It's fun, but I've only had it a few days so it's difficult to say how much fun it will be in 2 years.

I still don't really have the rules down yet, just trying to get the thing dialed in.

I got my replacement Transisitor Board yesterday and will install it this weekend.
