As title. I've got a Gigi in for some minor work. Its working perfectly now, but, adds a replay or 5, at random intervals. Its happening at various scores, with or without the 'Speshul' being lit and irrespective of if all yellow or red bumpers are made.

My schematic shows an 'Add replay unit' but I cant identify the thing. I have tried removing the score set repay plugs, switched the match feature on and off and still get the same results. I might play 3 or 4 games pefectly, then this issue begins. Sometimes, again with no Special lit, if the ball hits the slings, they give a replay, or if the ball goes down the Special/50 point side chutes, it awards 5 replays!

I've looked it all over for solder splashes, and suchlike but its clean. Even wiggling loom cables [jones plugs are spotless] or tapping the head or playfield does not make it award a replay!

Any thoughts? I have a schematic and have taken pictures though they might not look as great as a scanned copy...

Thanks for any ideas/thoughts, etc

Thanks, Howard.

I know that as the replay unit, so noted!

I'll go through those circuits today and see how I get on.

Found it! Thank you, Howard for those pointers. I traced the track you illustrated for me and although none of the by-pass ideas worked, after a bit of head scratching, I looked at the - 0 to 9 unit. I had that out yesterday and discovered a burnt wire underneath the wire resistor and thought that was my problem but even after insulating it, made no difference.
Anyway, I discounted that as it had been gone through, so moved onto the Ones unit reel, as per schematic. As I took it out, I soon noticed the blue/white[looks more yellow?] wire was rubbing against the metal reel and was shorting. Moving it and insulating it appears to have fixed it! Well, Ive played 30 odd games without issue anyway! Fingers crossed that was the fault.
