Dealer's Choice
Williams, 1974Working on a Williams Dealers Choice. Was pretty rough shape switch wise. Been working my way through it and have one last issue. When the game starts, it gives you all 4 players, no 1 player game. I've looked at the schematics E6 Player Reset and Player up SW. Am I missing something, all I get is a 4 player game.
Thanks

Player unit might be gummed up and stuck.
Sounds like a player unit position issue. If you manually step the unit several positions, does it move to a reset position or not move at all when you start a game?
When you step it, does the action snap back or lazy and stated already, stuck altogether.
I’d check the position of the arms too.
I agree I believe it is the coin unit
FYI Schematic and manual can be found here.

pasted_image (resized).pngHere's a thread about that coin unit/player unit interaction in Williams games of that era - might help you get a grip on why you only have a 4-player game. Sounds like either the coin unit is stuck, or there's a break in the connection through it.
