There has to be a better more bullet proof way to fix the bonus scoring issue on this. My 1000 point bonus often counts for 2000. The 2000 and 3000 point bonus always scores correctly. I have endlessly adjusted everything mentioned so far in this thread. Anyone have a tip for the 1000 bonus counting twice?
I have two Hot Shot games and they both have this issue. One more than the other. And yes I like to punish myself that's why I have TWO Hot Shot games!
Quoted from Deez:You need to adjust the switches on your 2000 relay on your reset bank. The contacts are probably mis-adjusted causing the extra 1k to score even when the relay isn't active. My dad used to have this machine and he hated the different values for the bonus so I altered those switches so it only gave 1k for each target for every ball.
I wish it was this simple. The 2000 bonus relay is adjusted properly and still have the issue.
Quoted from Deez:Check for solder blobs and bent connections on the switches. Also there is probably a switch associated with the second 1k score on the score motor switch stack that needs adjusted. I no longer have the schematics so can't tell you the exact one but maybe someone else can chime in.
Yes finally!! It was a stack on the score motor #1. It needed to be aligned / adjusted properly.
Thanks man!

Edit: this thing is so fussy you can’t breathe on it wrong. Not back to double counting some...
