My Spin Out will randomly reset when I hit the roto target. I’ve looked for patterns among specific numbers hit- or balls in play that cause the issue. There doesn’t seem to be a pattern, other than that the longer I play the more often it seems to happen.
I do not have a schematic so I don’t know how the roto target is connected to the reset process.
I’ve visually inspected the roto target and nothing seems out of sorts with no stuck switches or shorted wires, though I haven’t done any in depth analyzation- as I don’t have a schematic.
I’ve searched the archives for similar issues with Spin Out or with roto targets with no results. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

First thing to do is to order one from PBR. You can't expect to own and work on an EM without one.

Does it do a complete reset, like you've started a new game? Check the AX to make sure switches are properly gapped.

It resets everything except the achieved roto target numbers.

Do those reset when you start a game? And did you check the AX?

I’ve resolved the issue. One of the cloth covered wires on the disc unit was disconnected. The first picture shows the wire as it say- and the second wire shows it had disconnected.
Thanks for your help.
