Title: New police force issue :)
Post by: infinite1977 on August 30, 2015, 02:46:59 PM

Ok got back to this police force
 Two more issues now have presented themselves.

1.) I think there is a part missing with the spinner. Can anyone one advise. The board had a missing opto. Put one on and it worked when I put my finger in gate. Looks like something needs to be attached so it activates.

2.) Tightened rope on police car ND it now Activates switches as it should. However when I start a game the car stays at the bottom and not the top. Why would this be?

That looks like it. Shipping was quoted at $58
Surely this is not right!!

Even worse that could be US dollars.

I have used these guys in the past and found the product to be good quality and have bought enough stuff to make the postage worth it. Can't remember if this is one the sellers that refund some postage costs for small items??

Maybe send them an email to ask if one doesn't show up in AUS.

Does it work in the test mode?

Can it be disabled in the menus some where?

In test mode it goes up and down as it should. When I start a game it just starts in the down position and stays there
