Hi guys.
I have a 1964 Gottlieb Ship-Mates.
When I turn it on all seems fine. When I drop a coin in (or push the button) it starts humming very loud. The score reels do start to reset. However, the player 1 reel will go directly to 10 points. I can then play the game seemingly normally, except that the scoring is erratic. Even though I'm playing single-player, reels 2, and 3 will score also, but they will score the same. So if it registers 100 points, reels 2, 3, and 4 will all register points, even though I'm just playing a single player. Lastly, when I turn off the machine, the 100 point reel will actuate.
Here's a quick video:
I said Bally in the video -- but it is a Gottlieb, obviously!
Your insight would be greatly appreciated!
