Hello,

I’ve searched Pinside for this problem but I haven’t been able to find a solution. So here is what I’m dealing with:

What is happening when I start a new game is the score reels will reset to either zero or a maximum of five places or pulses. So for example if I scored 100 points on my previous game, when I hit the start button, the score will reset to 600 and the game will start. For further example, if my previous game score was 65,430 the score will reset to 00,980 and then will start normally. This happens for all four players on each and every score reel- advancing 5 places or to zero, whichever comes first. So (I’m pretty darn sure) it’s not either of the player reset relays in the backbox . The reset relay on the motor board is not holding for the second needed rotation of the score motor. But why?
Here’s something interesting!
If I turn the game off in the middle of the game with bonus accrued of 6,000 points or more (meaning the score motor will need a second turn to reset bonus back to zero), the score reels will get that second rotation and will also all reset back to zero.

I have a screen shot of the section of schematic that I think is relevant. I’m relatively new to troubleshooting. I read the post here that explains schematics start to finish for #Bon Voyage and it was amazing in how it advanced my knowledge. Thank you xsvtoys for that....

My other issue is the top hole won’t kick out. It looks like a simple circuit but I can’t get it to kick. I brought this game back from fully dead so I’m excited to resolve these last 2 standing issues.

Thanks in advance....
