Title: Adjusting micro switches
Post by: pinball god on May 27, 2009, 09:28:57 PM
Wonder if there are any tips on adjusting micro switches to minimize them going out of adjustment. I find mine work for a short while (couple of weeks) and then they become unstable again. Or is it simply a sign they are on their way out?

Gosh,

Shouldn't be like that.  Which game?

Both screws in the bracket?  Are they the cherry type (larger) or the smaller black type?

Don't forget you can replace the switch body and use the old blade if its in good nick!

Still tweaking the rfm. Had the LHS rollover not working and adjusted it. All perfect. Today both rollovers (each side) no go except some of the time. So I can re-adjust but wondered if there is a better solution. They may need replacing. I have several spares of these (the small block ones) Thanks Marty for enquiring
