Hello,

Just finished my DE Simpsons. Great game.

The ball gets caught on the lower popbumper. The left side as you are
facing the game. Is the best way to handle it is to hide some type of
wire or pin there? I can take a picture if it would help. Maybe I have
something wrong with a ring.

Thanks.

Dan

Are you talking about the sligshot lower left by any chance? There
aren't any pop bumper on the lower half of the playfield.
If so compare it to the other one, do they appear the same? is there a
plastic shoe on the kicker in the middle that hits the ball?
Maybe the rubber ring is too loose might want to try a smaller size.
Also make sure the switches are caught on the ring or something.

Nope. The lowest popbumper. (Cooling tower)

It gets caught on the left side between it and the single steel post w/
rubber ring.

I read somewhere that folks put a small wire or pin in that location
but I can't find the posting.

Dan there is a spring from the factory in that location to keep the
ball from hanging.....Not uncommon for that to be missing. I may be
able to take a picture of the spring if need be...
