Quoted from Kmstevens:

the first challenges is the Player Control Unit.

I don't have this machine. Does the Player Control Unit only Step Up, no Reset?

Quoted from Kmstevens:

It has a full reset,

In the pic, is it in its total reset position? Also, after reset, how many
times does it step up?

Quoted from Kmstevens:

after a full reset to player 1 position, the spider advances only 3 positions to player 4.

Oh, so that's a Player Step Up Unit. Player Control Unit deceived me a little bit because on the
wiper board there's wiper travel marks that go beyond the 4th (3rd step up) position.
I take it there's a wiper blade under each blade that's showing in the pic to ride on the inner
segments of the wiper board, but why are there markings as if the wiper goes beyond the 4th
player's position?
Anyways, as you know. The first thing is to get that Stepper freed up, cleaned, and lubed along
with the rest of the machine. I 100% go through machines before plugging in..

At first I thought Sky Rider was an EM arcade piece. Maybe I only worked on
CC 2 Player pins from that era, but does that Player Step Up have double wiper
boards (like their ball bowlers)? If so, did you take off the outside board then clean
and lube the inside wiper board? I've seen double boards to hold extra wires, but
that inside one looks to be a wiper board..
The Stepper torsion springs do have excess play. If it's a double wiper board, it
could use a couple more wraps, and also cleaning and lubing the inside board
is surly a plus..
