Hello I am working on a Flying Chariots. I am getting strange issues on the scoring. The 1s reel and the 10s reel works great. The 100s does not spin at all, the Q relay for the 100 points fires and locks on. It only unlocks when the 100s EOS is triggered but since the 100s coil doesn't fire points the EOS is never hit. The reel goes to zero correctly when it is reset.

When I force the 1 & 2 Player Scoring Control Relay to the 2nd player and activate the scoring relays, the 1s relay still fires the Player 1 relay, the 10s relay now fires the 2nd player relay, and the 100s relay fires nothing but the relay stays energized. There is one switch that is shorted closed on both the 10s relays even when the switch is clearly separated. It is this top switch in the photo. I traced the Blue and Orange wire back to the Balls Played Unit and that switch appears to be acting fine.

I see a lot of posts about the 9th position switch in the 10s. Is this top switch the 9th position or is it the switch thats off by itself? I think its the switch off by itself

It sounds like the 1and 2 player score relay has the make/break switches that transfer power from all 1st player score reels to 2nd player. Without positive clean connections on the switches score reel problems will happen.

I've spent a lot of time on that relay but I agree that it feels like the issue is there. Everything is testing correctly with a multimeter. I'll spend some more time on that relay today and triple check myself.
