Various games lockout the flippers during game play.

[jjlink]

On the 24 Game, Simpsons Pinball Party, and some others, in the middle of game play they play a sort of "you are shutdown sound" and then they lockout the flippers. So the ball just rolls down and out. Is this normal or is something wrong here?

Thanks

Maybe you have Sticky Keys activated?

Try clicking your Shift key 5 times real fast when table is not running.

This is usually the shortcut to activate Sticky Keys.

When Sticky Keys window pops up, click the blue link to go to Sticky Keys menu.

 

 

Now when next window comes up, Uncheckmark "Turn on Sticky Keys when Shift is pressed 5 times".

 

Now click Apply at bottom of window.

Now pressing of the Shift key does not activate Sticky Keys.

 

Hope this helps.

@jjlink do you have any nudge key bound to the same key as the flippers by accident and inadvertently tilt the table by any chance?

It appears to have been the tilt settings were too sensitive. After adjusting that so far this only happens when the shaker motor goes off in the 24 game when hitting the cell phone.

Thanks
