'''Upgrading to L-9 ROMs'''
The latest version of the Funhouse game ROM is L-9.  With this version the game ROM has increased to a 2M ROM from a 1M ROM.  A jumper on the WPC board must be moved to use the larger ROM.  The jumper at W2 must be removed and a jumper at W1 must be added.  This is a somewhat simple board repair but if you do not have board soldering experience any [[Pinball_Board_Repair_Services |pinball tech]] can make this modification.

Full of tricky, but now-available, parts, these heads are straightforward to service. There still seems to be an issue with poorly-made jaw gears that fracture early in service.

Upgrading to L-9 ROMs The latest version of the Funhouse game ROM is L-9. With this version the game ROM has increased to a 2M ROM from a 1M ROM. A jumper on the WPC board must be moved to use the larger ROM. The jumper at W2 must be removed and a jumper at W1 must be added. This is a somewhat simple board repair but if you do not have board soldering experience any pinball tech can make this modification.
