Hello everyone, I have a nice MB that is not activating the Phantom
Flip feature. I put on a remote battery holder about 6 months ago,
and during that process had everything reset. Before that, both sides
of the Phantom Flip worked perfectly. After the reset, the Phantom
Flip would award 500,000 vs flipping. I had posted a few months ago
and was told that the machine needed some "playing time" to calibrate
and would begin flipping. I played a ton of games, and also ran the
ball down all of the lanes and ramps manually, but to no avail. I
then went into the settings and made sure that the feature was on (and
it was). Then did the same thing (playing a ton of games and also
running the ball manually).

Am I missing another test? I think it is the calibration because the
machine will not go into phantom flip at all. Also, I get no errors
or credit dot when powering up the machine.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
Craig

You can reset it in the feature menu and after about 10 games it
will relearn the shots. But you will get better results if you
upgrade the PF boards with the pinbits replacements or at least the
pinbits replacement chips for the original boards.

Basically you have three switches on each side leading to the flipper
that all have to be working 100% in order for the Phantom flip to work
correctly. Check that all of those are working correctly first.

I am having this same problem today. All three switches on each side register fine, I reset everything, actually am on a new MPU board, but after 15 games still no Phantom Flips
