No flippers :-(

Check your trough switches in switch test. These are physical switches

Getaway has 3 balls in the trough.

Your symptons mean you have bad (stuck) trough no 3 switch (counting from the right)

When one ball is put in the shooterlane, due to your bad no 3 switch, it still believes it has 3 balls in the trough, so it spits out another ball.

^^ What he said, test them in test mode!!!

Will do

Go to test levels - it will cycle through the active ones
telling you what they are. If you're missing the 3rd ball, check wiring
and the physical button.

Cheek plug - I still have a Getaway manual for sale if you need diagrams etc.

I've already got 2 manuals for it

cheers for the offer though

This was the problem

Bent the lever on the micro switch a bit, then a bit the otherway, it now is fully working

I'd just like to say a massive THANK YOU to everyone that helped.

Love you all

New fliptronic as the other one is RIP As it had sat for so long the 3rd (left) ball switch was stuck on (just freed it)
