Hi guys,
Just got my first pin (STTNG) out of storage and into the new pinshack I built, but on set up got an issue that had me stumped at first. All powers up ok no errors. Soon as I hit the start button right flippers go up and stay there.
Did a flipper test and they work fine, so assumed it was CPU related. Long story short it turns out to be the plastic interrupter on the flipper switch for the opto is a little over bent with age/use. Question is what should these look like when new as I haven't got time to unpack another pin yet to check.
Here is a pic of mine and it is causing the hold coil to be on all the time that is the issue - should I just give it a good bend ??? you can see it is not flush and sticking out a bit
Cheers in advance Kev
