Quick question for Dodge City owners. My 3-5 ball label is gone, could you let me know which is which, or better yet, post a picture?

I think the connectors shown below are for that adjustment and I think that I am on 3 ball.

I can shoot you a photo later once I am back to the garage. I just got the game and saw those labels for certain.
In the meantime, are the rollunders supposed to reset to the value of 1X for each player in a multiplayer game? or at the start of a new game? recall it goes 1X, 10X then 100X. seems like a horrifically unbalanced game for competition if it never resets to 1X (other than shooting a 100X shot). thx

See pic below for the 3-5 ball adjustment.

This feature rolls over from game to game. It does not reset. This is one of the reasons why some do not favor multi-player games, but I think the artwork on most of them more than make up for it. In an arcade setting, the fact that the feature rolled over might mean the difference between someone putting in a dime or not since they would be much further ahead with the 100x multiplier.

Outstanding!! One more request if you don’t mind. Do you have the motor switch and timing chart?? It is not on the schematic. Sometimes they stapled it to the inside of the cabinet next to the motor.

Here you go! Hopefully you’re able to zoom in to read it clearly. Glad to help.

This is so helpful. Thank you. Right now I am trying to diagnose a no scoring condition for all the rollunders. It must be some common cause and I believe part of the circuit goes through the motor. The game is so old that green and red wires are now grey and grey. Also, with and black is grey and grey. You get the idea.
