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!

hi guys.  My STTNG is acting up and I have company coming over tomorrow, who are excited to play it!!  Is anyone available to come take a look this afternoon or evening???  I can pay a good repair rate, and offer beer and all the pinball you want to play (STTNG / Black Hole / Wizard of Oz / Ghostbusters).

The problem is after i did a little work on the drop target of STTNG, the trough suddenly went crazy -- the LED on the boards are on, but none of the optos seem to be working as far as i can tell.  when i turn the game on, the trough kicker fires about once every 2 seconds until i turn it off.  my guess is it's a broken wire somewhere, but i've spent several hours and i give up.  i'm not an expert, so my time isn't very efficient on it and i'm bad at diagnosing.  i really hope someone's willing to come out and take a look.

i'm in Bristow, VA, which is sort of near Manassas.  if you think you can help, let me know, i'll give you the address.

Thanks!
Dan Reynolds
