I am working on repairing my Atlantis pinball machine and need a little assistance.
This was a non-working machine ; but now I have the game mostly working.
-The game starts now and plays through the 5 balls - all targets/rollovers scoring as they should.
- The issue i am having is with the stepper that controls the 1-9 advancing .
- The game starts with the #1 light lit up -as it should on start up. When the ball rolls over the #1 you score the 3000 points but the light does not change to the #2. The stepper does not advance.
- I have cleaned the stepper unit and the stepper moves freely/ not gummed up; I can manually advance the unit by hand- I can advance the 1-9 lights manually and then the special lights up. When you start a new game the stepper resets back to #1 light.
--I do not have the schematic for this game.
-- I have checked/cleaned the "E" relay that is for the 3000 points and advancing the sequence. The "E" relay pulls in and the score motor turns; but the stepper does not even attempt to move.. I know the power is going to the unit because it resets back to the #1 spot when you manually advance it. The start up sequence triggers the unit to reset back to the #1 position fine.
-- I guess i would like to know what switch on the score motor actually triggers the stepper unit to advance?
