Hello all, my Pioneer is still stuck on first ball after I've looked the machine over, won't go into 2nd player, starts ok scores okay until ball drains, hits trough switch, p energizes score runs but player unit doesn't advance from player 1 ball 1 position, have checked tightened cleaned ax bx cx etc, score reels resetting correctly and switches look ok, player unit and bonus unit and replay halfmoon unit were all bound up initially but both are moving properly now, still fun to play heck can't lose, fun to see how many balls it takes before a newbee notices

Checked out tilt hold and no change, went into ax again and before really getting into it had a leaf break so need to order a couple, will update thanks

Hi all, after family visit and storm prep I finally looked at Pioneer, soldered leaf switch on ax then ball wouldn't kick out at start of game or end of ball, added spring tension to ax relay which seemed to fix ball eject for awhile, tried jumping across contacts that Howard suggested to no avail but will try again today, playfield lights working now also after bad socket found
