Nishijin Super DX Prize lane issue

[TieDyedG]

Hello everyone!

I have had this pachinko machine in my family since by dad bought it in the Navy and it is having a weird issue. One of the two lanes that feed the prizes isn't going into the prize pool. I made a video describing it here: https://youtu.be/9DsDW2N9k3w

Any help would be appreciated!

Yes , your payout Mechanism in the back needs a clearing and cleaning (you might have a extra prize with little dead bugs blocking your ball path.)

We do have a member Dan and has done a very thorough online manual on his website and here is the link

A big tip take plenty of photos before taking your machine apart and during disassembly for the photos will help when you get the Head scratching time ie : Where does this go ?

And read my little saying at the bottom of my reply box . It has helped me since 1967 when I was 10 years old .

I forgot to tell you that your machine in the upper right is what is called a "Rolling Stone" machine that is that it Opens when one of the balls that is "Shot" on the play field goes into one of the "Tulips" .

I do not have one of these machines in my collection but a good amount of Members here have this machine at one time or still have theirs .

They will be around shortly to help.

Welcome to the forums.

Good troubleshooting tips from takethecastle57. When I was helping my brother-in-law restore their model B, we found an oversized ball (probably a ball bearing) had been used and it jammed the feed at the turnaround. Took it apart, pushed it back through with a wooden chopstick, problem solved.

I'm pretty sure there's only 2 screws holding the jackpot cover on, might have to gently wiggle it a bit from all the built up dust and grime that's accumulated. Here's a picture of what it looks like when it's off.

My mistake, there are 3 screws holding the jackpot cover. 2 on the bottom and 1 in the upper right corner.

Thanks all! I will try all this out soon and let you know how it goes!

Got it! Thank you so much! The area of plastic with the two screws was glued to the underlying plastic. So a little bit of chisel work got me there . One big piece of sawdust removed and the lane is clear!

Thanks again for everyone's help!
