Hey pinheads. My first go at an em so keep that in mind. This game hasn't been played in possibly 20 years. I just finished shopping it out. I can start a game, the score reels zero out and the ball gets ejected and lights ball 1 in play. Now the only scores that will register are the slingshots, the 2 yellow bumpers near the bottom of the Playfield as well as the other 4 switches behind rubbers. So all the switches at the top, pop bumpers and everything else make the noises that it's been struck but no points are awarded. Now on ball 2 everything gives me points as I believe it should. I have other issues but I'll keep it to this for know.
Thanks for any suggestions. No suggestions are too basic guys. Might be something extremely dumb!

Happens with either. I'll get back to you tonight about the other question. One other thing, on ball one if you tap one of the targets bull the Bulls eye markings on it, it doesn't award points. If you hold it, it will but only 100 or 10 points I forget. On ball 2 it gives you 500 like it should.
Also when I said it makes the noises, I mean whatever that's called in the bottom of the cab that turns, the chimes do not make a noise.

Ok. Sorry took so long. On ball 1. None of the "numbered" targets score. For example the 5 switches at the top, 4 mid Playfield and the 2 inland and 2 outlines. All bumpers are scoring now. Also those 2 bulls eye targets are not scoring unless I hold the target then it scores 100?? Should be 500.

Again they do make the device in the bottom of the cab turn. No scoring or chimes

All the switches behind rubber are scoring 10. The bumpers are scoring 100 unless their lit, than 1000. I think that's all correct since they score the same on ball 2

Ah yeah. That would of been a lot easier way to say it! LOL. Yes the relays are working as they should, the e relay is first when lit then when not lit the d relay goes. As it should.

Think I'm onto something here. When I slightly move the device in the lower right of the back box which moves when each ball is drained I was able to make a 500 point score. I'm not moving it far enough to hit the ball 2 contact though. image.jpg

It's on the first contact. Those switches on the back are exactly what's wrong!! As it goes into ball 2 and so on the switches get more relaxed and make better contact. My guess is that the game was sitting for 20 years with that switch being held open and warping it a bit. This is great news, and it's even my birthday. (For another 40 minutes). I need to adjust that one switch just a hair. See how things go tomorrow. Thanks so much for your help! Might not be done with you yet though. Have to see if that continuous scoring still happens.
