    I purchased a Bullseye em that was apart, but the seller said just needed to be "shopped" Well I have fixed alot of issues
    Now working on the animation unit. The side opposite the switches, does not line up right. It has a clutch like cork washer
    that someone has glued on the larger plate. Now the smaller plate on the other side of the cork washer goes not grab it
    good enough. It has a spring that can be adjusted for more pressure, but still won't grab it tight enough. Any help with this
    appreciated.

    I went through one of these 2 or 3 years ago and put it out in a local
    Pizza Shop. I'll see about getting a pick of that unit if you think that'll
    help. It's been awhile. That animation unit is on the inside of the back
    door, right?

    This might help from the '69 CCM parts catalog:

    Yes animation is on the back door. I did more troubleshooting, found the clutch release coil needed adjustment and cleaning.
    So it wasn't releasing the plate to move, so I've got that fixed. thanks. Now the animation unit turns but intermittently
    will put on the first base light and and not the at bat light on a home run. So the at bat coil seems to be engaging early as that what engages
    the animation. It has four fingers that will engage the lights, the at bat coil engages a finger depending on what is hit. So nothing
    should be engaged until it stops and engages the at bat light on a home run, but the first base light finger got engaged as it was turning. Just started on
    this issue. Thanks for the diagram and help. I have a schematic.

    Found that a couple of the fingers are bent, and get energized randomly. Someone had tried to fix this. Fortunately when I bought the machine the owner
    gave me a bucket of parts from a cannibalized CC base ball machine. I have the parts I need. I'm going to swap the whole
    assembly. I 'll let you know the outcome. There have been so many issues with this machine, but I'm learning alot about it.

    Still working on this machine. I swapped out the whole animation unit, it works fine now. Also bat unit.
    Working on a startup problem, where slide bank doesn't energize. I looked at schematic. I'm pretty sure it the switch
    on the scoring wheel. But how does Chicago coin identify the switch. It says cam 1 sec E sw B .
    So I'm assuming cam 1 nearest the motor sec E ( it's marked) sw b ? Is that the second switch from the cam or second
    to the last switch from the outside ?

    Just picked up my own Bulls Eye. Semi working.
    Going to start cleaning the reels and steppers today. After that I'll probably be doing what you are, trouble shooting.

    Do you happen to have a schematic?

    I’m getting one of these in a lot purchase. Can someone give me the typical price range?

    Will be selling it as I already have a Williams Official Baseball Deluxe.

    Well, if you were closer I'd take a look, but you're about 2.5 hours away from me. It would be faster than fixing mine, and would help as I have no reference of parts, etc.

    Price range? I have no idea. I did see a few ads on here, but they look a little stagnant. Priced too high, or just no interest?

    I have a Bulls Eye Baseball in a local Pizza shop. Since covid, it hasn't gotten played much
    and since I have a few other baseball machines, I'm thinking about trading it if anyone may
    have any trading piece and interest.. (T)
