WMS sys11 issues
« on: August 08, 2014, 07:09:25 PM »
Ok, so I have the Earthshaker which is actually a pretty good game.. im enjoying having it.

I do have a few small issues on the machine though which are switch related.

Firstly... you can play a ball but when it goes into the trough it doesn't always register... game goes into "lost ball" mode then recognises the switch closure in the trough and awards the bonus etc as normal.. sometimes it doesn't have to search for the ball but there is a long delay in the ball going into the trough and the end of ball sequence activating.

2ndly, sometimes it will spit 2 balls into the shooter.
3rdly, it may load a ball randomly into the shooter lane as if gone into multiball mode... I THINK this is a fault.. it is possible im getting 2 ball multiball and not knowing it..LOL.
Today, it has started going into GAME OVER when still playing a ball.. its not a RESET... its more like a phantom switch closure in the trough..

..In fact, all problems seem to be trough related?

Im not fully savvy on how these systems work, so pointers in the right direction from those who are is greatly appreciated!!!!

In switch test mode if you gently bang on the apron does it register any switches?
