I am curious, does the sea food wheel awarded number match the playfield light(mine is not), or is the spinning seafood wheel just a gimmick that doesn't match up? If so, how do you tune it to match the awarded light?

No the award given should match the number that appears in the loop, (fish net) that's painted on it.

If yours isn't, I'd check your optos on the seafood wheel assembly.

Indypinhead has it right. It should match.

In addition to your optos, consider checking connectors (including cracked solder on header pins)

Do you have any other switch errors? I think I had a bad switch diode that made it hard for the switch matrix to reliably read the seafood wheel, but my memory could be off.

Thanks for the reply, I will investigate it further then. One more question tough. The order of numbers on the playfield is not the same order as on the decal on my seafood wheel. Dodgy after market decal thats there or is it supposed to be so and aligned correctly by the optos?
And what if the previous owner has had the wheel apart, is there a default mounting position to the motor?
