Hi everyone,
I have a scoring issue with my pin. I believe it’s in the scoring motor or the 1 and 10 point relay (less likely). The issue is that when the 5 or the 50 pt relay is tripped, the scoring motor is supposed to pulse 5 times to get multiple of 5. Issue is that I rarely get even 1 point from the 5 pulses of the 1 unit (5 pts) and usually between 3-5 pulses from the 50 point relay. It feels like it’s pulsing the 1 point really fast, or “not enough” to register an activation.
If I manually articulate the 1 or the 5 scoring relay, it will register as normal.
I expect it’s one of the score motor contacts not gapped properly, but don’t want to mess it up any. I believe it’s 2B(?) from the schematics, and based on a previous similar issue in the thread below, I believe I have the same issue, but aren’t exactly sure it’s that, Or how to properly gap less “tight”. Suggestions?
