Quoted from Wickerman2:Gave up and burned machine in pagan ceremony.
You can send the ashes to me.
Quoted from Wickerman2:Any Williams guys with sage advice on score reels or the large bell locking on?
Start checking resistance of bell and score reel and relay coils to make sure none are shorted as that will cause an arc across the relay to make it stick. Also make sure no playfield switches are stuck on.
Also Gottlieb score reels of this era are almost identical to the ones Williams used and so is the principal of how they work. If you see any coils with dark or black wrappers there is a good possibility that the windings are shorted to less resistance inside.
Quoted from Wickerman2:Still can't figure why there's no attempt for the score reels to reset..
There is a normal reset relay in the backbox that works all the score reels that is triggered by a switch on the score motor. Once they are all reset, each reel has a switch that opens to stop the cycle. There is also a reset relay in the lower cabinet that stays engaged until the cycle is complete.
