This is another in my “Occam’s Razor Pinball Fixes” series. These videos demonstrate the principal of Occam’s Razor, which states, “The simplest solution is the most likely” and we often forget this.
In this case, I couldn’t get Haunted House to start a game.. the fix was significantly easier than what I thought it would be. (And no, it’s not because there wasn’t a ball in the machine.. LOL)
As more and more people discover the joy of playing pinball, I find myself getting more basic/general questions, and this seems like a good time to launch a new series I’m calling, “Pinball Features”. Each video will focus on a certain element of pinball and offer some basic information on this feature/component of pinball. While this is geared for laypeople, I hope that regardless of your skill level, you may find it informative.
The first episode is dedicated to the Tilt Mechanism. I go into how it works, why it’s there and the different types of tilt devices found in pinball machines.
