OK, After my Record time of 5:21 Minutes to destroy the ring (I never said it was a fast record, more of an endurance record) I am very frustrated with this part of the game!! I lock the first ball in the ring and then simply hit it through with the other ball, right? I hit the Freaking ball 12 times!! it fell out a couple of times and I had to reLock it in the ring and then try to hit it through again. Flippers were still good and strong, it must be an alignment thing. Anybody have a tip on something I should do to fix this?? I know it isn't supposed to be super easy, but when you make the shot, you should get credit for it!!  

Thanks, Dave

Yes there is an alignment issue that develops over time.  The ramp may not be pointing exactly at the center anymore.  Left/right adjustment is done by loosening the bolts that hold it in place.  Up/down (if required) needs to be done by bending the ramp slightly by hand..

Use a flat object like a ruler and lay it on the ramp to verify alignment with the hole in the ring.

Well, I am looking in the Switch test and the Spinner Switch #52 and the Ring Made #47 and Back Trough #48 all register fine, Is there another one I am missing? The magnet seems fine in regular play, meaning, Make the ramp shot and the Magnet grabs the ball, not every time, but if it is clean enough to get to the opto, it grabs it.

Thanks, Dave
