If I have all 4 players playing on this game, sometimes other players scores will tally on player 4 along with the player that is up. I think it scores correctly on the player up, but it will tally on player 4 on the 1000 and 10,000 wheel. I'm not sure, but I think for the most part, it happens when player 2 is up.
Not long ago, I cleaned and adjusted all the scoring wheels and blades on all 4 players. I thought that did the trick, but not so.
Any help appreciated.

The player unit is what directs the pulses to the proper set of reels, I'd clean that and check for any possible shorts

zacaj, thanks for the suggestion. I don't know what it was, but I cleaned and the player unit wheel surface, lubed the pivot points, and just 'crimped' the solder connections with a pair of needle nose pliers since they all looked intact. It has worked ever since.
Thanks for the help.
