You guys have helped me in the past with simple problems I could not
figure out on my own...so I'm gonna try and ask about a new issue that
just started the other day.

When I start the game the ball is not loaded onto the playfield to
shoot. Freddy just yells.."shoot the ball" over and over again. Anyone
know what I might need to replace?

Thanks,
John

Start by checking the wires on the coil that
launches the ball into the ball trough. There
may be a loose or broken connection.

And check the switches in the trough and shooter lane in the switch edge
test to make sure they are registering properly.

Check by hand but also with a ball.

Sometimes a finger works great but the switch won't activate with a ball.

It was one of the switches. I had to bend it back to where it
recognize the ball passing.
You guys are the best!

Thanks!
