[FSPA] anyone available for emergency pin maintenence?

[The Bob]

It's kind of like working on the main electrical panel of your house:
Never have both hands on the panel at the same time.  Keep one hand in your
pocket and off your beer while working on your game. :)

That and check to see if you shorted the drop target switch diode to the
other switch leg or ground.  I asked Matt W. and he replied with this: "I
would reseat the connector to the opto board the evaluates the balls in the
trough.  But likely the “jam” led is failed closed.  If reseating doesn’t
fix it, a switch test of the jam led on the board would tell you."

Good luck!
