Good Afternoon,

I got this Gottlieb Double Action breathing again after cleaning all steppers and score reels. It scores the correct amount of points. The game over match function works. The issue I am having now is the Balls Played Unit advances too many steps, skips over Ball 2.

Game is setup for 3 balls per game.

I press the replay button once. For 1 Player.

I am able to get a good start-up sequence.
score reels reset to zero
replay unit decrements 1 game
Ball 1 is displayed on backbox
Ball is released

"O" relay is latched on.

I score some points and then I drain the ball

"O" relay is unlatched and "P" relay is latched on
Then the Balls Played Unit advances to Ball 3 and Player 2 score reels become active.

I score some point and then I drain the ball.

Game Over

Im not understanding the schematic and what would be causing this. Not sure where to look at this point.

Any thoughts/ideas/suggestions is greatly appreciated.

thanks
Steve

I am looking at the circuit of ADD BALLS PLAYED..

2 switches on TB1 were not even close to being adjusted. I am now able to register the correct ball being played and also the scoring is being scored to the correct player and it also seems to work correctly when selecting 2 players.

Now im looking into why at "Game Over" I press the replay button to start a new game and nothing... I have to unplug the machine in order for it to work.. I'll start another thread if needed...

thanks

Im gonna mark this as resolved. I was able to play about 10 games (single and double) and the add balls played worked fine.

as for the "Game Over" issue, once I put the pin back together (I had a few switches loose for adjusting) that issue went away... for now, lol

thanks
Steve
