Bally Flip Flop. Finally got the Game Over Latch relay to energize. But now it will not stop. Playfield functions, points add to score reels, and ball kicks out to shooter lane. Yet GAME OVER still lit in backbox and no ball count. If I leave it that way, the game will stay on indefinitely. In order to De-Energize the Game Over relay, I had to place an index card between the switch blades.

Here is what happens from the start. I insert 25 cents in coin slot. One credit is added. I press start button and score motor moves but game does not reset. If I manually activate COIN relay something resets but game still does not start. If I then manually activate RESET relay, the game will reset, but still shows GAME OVER in backbox. In any case, now the Game Over Latch relay is energized and nothing I do will de-energize it. I try to pull the Armatures and Actuator away but they abruptly snap back into energizing.

Thanks, I'll try that. New thread since the previous issue of the GO relay not energizing is solved. Now, just the opposite along with new issues.
