Stern, 2012Wondering if anyone has had this issue before, happens roughly every 10th first lock. I will shoot a ball into the magneto lock area and it goes in and locks fine, however then the game dosent serve up another ball, does a ball check and then ends the ball like I drained. It will then go back to normal serving up the next ball of 3, I have only ever seen it happen upon locking the first ball. Guessing its a switch or opto problem?
Had the same issue. I am not sure what the fix was. Checked the wires to the magneto lock and ball eject. All seemed connected. No changes. I recently re placed the shooter rod so it sat center of the auto shooting mechanism deal. After that....I have not had any issues period. Not clear to why that has fixed it. Hope it helps.

I am having the same issue. It only happens on the very first lock and only sometimes. Once you have hit a few other things or locked another ball it seems to progress without issue. I am wondering if you ever solved the problem or if anybody else knows the solution.
