After a couple of years of working perfectly my Atlantis suddenly has decided that it won’t reset the Drop Target bank correctly.

Once all targets are down, it either continually tries to reset (targets going up and down and scoring but never stopping) or else it will eventually reset with only maybe 1-2 targets at one end resetting

I am assuming this is mechanical and not electrical? And my guess is it’s the two coils that move the reset bar (?). But no idea how to adjust them if they’re the problem and, if so, which direction to reposition then into after loosening the four screws that old each in place.

Help please.

Fine from what I can tells — feels firm and doesn’t wobble or anything. Seems to be welded to the lift bar well.

So I have followed that protocol and if the playfield is up in the full upright service position, the bank does reset. If it’s down even slightly at an angle – much less flat in the play position – it will not reset. I noticed that if I manually reset one of the targets while the whole bank is hopping up-and-down trying to reset, that’s enough to allow the whole thing to reset.

It’s gotta be mechanical and maybe I just need to adjust those banks more. I’m tempted to just take a Saturday morning soon and take the whole bank apart and reclean it and put it back together.

Thanks I’ll check all of the above. I also noticed one of these rubber stops came off. Is this critical and does Steve stock them? How doe they reattach?

One other point —in case this helps with the diagnosis overall – is that the game seems to have no problem fully re-setting the drop targets when I start a new game.

Seems like 100% of the time it resets correctly then.

It’s just when it tries to reset mid-game after all the drops are down that the problem happens.

Ok I'll take a look! I won't have a chance until tomorrow but will report back as soon as I can.

Here's an update video. Any additional thoughts/ideas/help would be appreciated.

There are two other motor switches involved — 2B is the G lock-in switch. And then 3D — the manual says it completes the circuit to G relay?

I will have to go back and look at the G relay again. I THINK it’s making tightly but I can adjust it closer.

Thanks Raff — I’ll check that too!
