I can't figure out what "Spots Black When Lit" and "Spots Red When Lit" mean.

Any ideas? Also need a manual.

Best,
Mike

spotting a number = say of you spot a red it takes out one of the red cards

OK, I got the Spot the Red / Black lights alternating with the pop bumper hits by degreasing the KS and VS relays.

Now when I make the hole shot I sometimes get spotted a card, but not usually.

Anyone out there know:

1) Where is the hole switch on the schematic? What is it called?

2) Are you supposed to get spotted a card every time the hole shot is made, assuming there is a card of that color to spot?

Thanks,
Mike

The hole switches are at 21 G

Regarding Question # 2:

On Hit The Deck (replay version), you are spotted either a black or red card when landing in the hole, but it may be a card you have already retired (so there is no change to the lit/unlit cards). Neptune (Add A Ball version) may follow the same logic.

That solved it. Thank you.
