    Question TopGun help question w/pics Top Gun

    I need help w/ my TopGun. I dont use my back hopper tray payouts for my pachinkos so I dont load balls in the back. I prefer to play this way and it hasnt been a problem till this machine. The motor/ball sensor that is pictured is really loud it rattles the platic that protects it and it constantly turns when on looking for balls. Is there a way I can turn this off (unplugging something or fooling the sensor??) Any top gun owners or former owners or if the pics match some other machine any help is much appreciated.

    I just looked mine over. I have the black/orange case. I run mine cyclic.
    I have nothing unplugged and mine doesn't run. try putting a few balls through the motor and see if it stops when it runs out.

    II've unfortunantly tried that. I've put some through the top then it acts normal until it runs out then it starts spinning again.

    Well then the best would most likely follow the wire from the motor, and unplug it. Like Arby said.

    yup found this when prepping one for sale started to make me wonder but its perfectly normal like arby said you should be able to unplug the motor and here nothing more from it I unfortunatly dont have one here but if i can remember right there are just 4 or six screws on teh cover directly over teh back of the payout motor
    My rice krispies told me to do it

    Hold ON!!! There is an easier way! Right under the volume switch on the back there is a black connector that disables the motor. I will try and get a picrure.

    Here, You may have to unplug the red one too. I cant remember, mine is unplugged and it works just fine in cyclic.

    Thank you all so much

    thanks I was able to fix it. glad it was easy I never feel comfortable unplugging wires without knowing what Im doing, sometimes when I do that a high pitched Japanese voice yells out of my machine.

    On startling sounds I just got the poop scared out of me by finding the machine gun/missle buttons:scared1: anything else I should know about this machine?lol what is the digit led under the helmet?
