I bought a 1976 Bally Flip Flop. I turn it on press start then it cycles player one scores to zero but none of the other players, it then keeps cycling the score 1 and score 2 resets nonstop.
All three of the leafs are open on all score reels for all 4 players. I took them all off and sanded all the contacts lightly. I have videos of it happening that I cannot upload here.

Hi pantallica , Welcome to pinside!!

Check that the Bonus Unit is resetting to zero and that the Bonus Unit zero switch is opening.

You need to get familiar with the reset circuit of your game... specifically 3C on page 6 below.. score reset relays are an issue I believe... perhaps both.. but separate issues...
