| Balls: Magnetised | Run Super Charger Test in Test Menu with new balls | Replace balls | Very Easy |
| Loop: Dirty | Feel the inside of the Super Charger loop | If rough, sand inside with 1600 grit sandpaper and Novus 2 for lubrication. If not too bad, just use Novus 2 or stainless steel metal polish. | Very Easy |
| Diverter: Loose | Feel if diverter moves once engaged | Tighten diverter. If rivets or screws are loose, replace the diverter. | Easy |
| Magnet Coils: Damaged | Test resistance from the coil plug with a multimeter — should read 3–5 Ohms | If no reading, check wiring from plug to coil. If below 3 Ohms, replace the coils. | Medium |
| Opto: Not Functioning | Open Switch Test in the SC Test Menu and roll a ball around the loop to test all 4 opto switches | See opto issues below in order | Easy–Medium |
| Optos: Dirty Transmitter or Receiver | Opto fails switch test or registers intermittently | Clean Opto Transmitter & Receiver with a cotton bud and window cleaner (e.g. Windex) | Easy |
| Opto: Connector or wire from CPU board | With game off, do continuity test from opto board solder joints to CPU board connector. With game on, measure voltage on solder joints — should read ~12V (Receiver only reads 12V if receiving light from Transmitter) | Replace faulty wire or connector | Medium |
| Optos: Misaligned | In Switch Test, loosen opto screws and twist back and forth to see if switch registers | Realign optos and screw in tight | Easy |
| Optos: Damaged Solder Joint | Opto has been cleaned and continuity/voltage tested | Re-flow solder joints on both legs of the mini opto circuit boards | Medium |
| Optos: Damaged Transmitter or Receiver | Test Transmitter by photographing it with a phone while game is on — a working transmitter shows a purple glow. Test Receiver by blocking Transmitter beam and shining an incandescent torch into receiver — Switch Test should change state. | Replace the Transmitter LED or Receiver component | Medium |
| Driver Board: Connector J122 & J8 Plugs Damaged | Check continuity from connectors J122 (Pins 1, 2 & 4) & J8 (Pins 1, 4 & 2) | Replace damaged plugs | Medium |
| Accelerator Board: Connector Pins Damaged | Check continuity with connectors plugged into traces on back of Driver & Accelerator Boards | Try re-soldering first. If damaged or corroded, replace the pins. | Medium |
| Driver Board: Fuse Blown | Check F103 | Replace blown fuse | Easy |
| Driver Board: Blown Transistor | Test TIP102 transistors Q26, Q24 & Q20 with multimeter on Diode setting — black lead on center leg, red on outer legs. Reading should be 0.5–0.7. | Guide for replacing transistors → | Hard |
| Accelerator Board: Blown Transistor | Test TIP102 transistors Q2, Q5 & Q8 (black lead on center, red on outer, reading 0.5–0.7). Also test TIP-36C transistors Q3, Q6 & Q9 (red lead on center, black on outer, reading 0.5–0.7). | Guide for replacing transistors → | Hard |
