Does this only happen when a target next to the one that scores but shouldn't is down? For example, in the video, 7 scored and 6 was down.

Quoted from bonzo71:The issue on my game is not specific to any one target
Quoted from HowardR:Does this only happen when a target next to the one that scores but shouldn't is down? For example, in the video, 7 scored and 6 was down.
Given that, problem is most likely in the Bonus unit. Could be the snow shoes or the unit could be sticking occasionally. Are the snow shoe ends nice and round or have the ends worn flat? Are the show shoes centered on the contacts for all positions?
The intermittent nature of the problem and the location of the Bonus unit (hanging down from playfield?) make for a difficult diagnosis. Putting your phone inside the cabinet and taking a movie of the Bonus unit until the problem happens will help diagnose the problem.
Quoted from MarkG:When you next see the failure, make note of which targets are down, and which target(s) give you extra points. Then put the targets back in the same position and collect the bonus again and again to see how repeatable the problem is.
Good one, MarkG Looking for repeatability is a good thing.
