Ball stuck somewhere hidden

A ball drained and it didn’t seem to register. The music continued and some vocal cues from Loomis made me think the game thought it had spit out the next ball but it had not. Hope this helps.

    I took a look at it, and the ball was behind the drop target at the Judith Myers tombstone. The machine is having trouble triggering that target to drop (e.g., if you drain the ball in play and a ball trapped behind it should be released into play). It can consistently pop the target up, and a ball hitting it can drop it, but the machine has trouble dropping it on command. I've put an out of order sign on it for now

    Confirmed that this is still an issue. I hit the standup target behind the drop target as a skill shot, and it locked the ball. I then let the ball save time out and intentionally drained, and the machine made a few unsuccessful attempts to drop the target, and then eventually went into ball search. This also didn't immediately work, so I went to get the key, and by the time I got back, the ball search had eventually dropped it.

    I went into the coil test, and the reset and drop consistently worked during every test. So it seems like this might be intermittent, and it looks like ball search will eventually get it out, but it's still not ideal.

    I took another look at the drop target issue, and the problem was not enough tension on the return spring. I shortened it a bit, and now it seems to be working consistently.
