My Slugfest suddenly started registering a single,double,triple or home run on a swing and a miss without hitting a target
I cannot figure out why this is happening
Everything else seems to be working fine
Is this a board issue or a relay issue ?
I tried resetting to factory defaults with no change
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Mike

I'd start there. Target(s) stuck closed ? Wiring for them shorted ?
LTG : )
Checked sll the target switches snd they are cleaned and working correctly
I get a single,double ,triple or home run whenever I swing the bat
Not sure what switch would cause this

You need to go into solenoid test mode and test the bat and see if the vibrations are causing spurious switch closures. It's one thing for them to "idle" or sit correctly when nothing is going on, but they also need to be adjusted such that vibrations from the bat and pitch mechs aren't causing issues.
You can either do this with a meter on the switch edges and listen for tones, or you can go into switch test and manually actuate the bat coil with a decent bit of force and see if the vibrations cause switch closures.
Fun game! Hope you get it back to solid working order soon!

Did you go into the diagnostic switch test under settings?
When you do that, try shaking the game and see if any switches (other than tilt switches) get triggered.
Thanks so much

Appreciate you taking the time to send it
I will try that..it makes sense !
