So I have a weird issue on my Jungle Queen. It plays and scores normally throughout gameplay, until you achieve a double bonus. Once in double bonus, it doubles the double, so 1000 becomes 4000 instead of 2000.

In fact, on player one, it sometimes even gives you 5000. (Didn't happen in video)

There's a video for you to watch here:

Also have a note from a previous owner that didn't seem to help a local tech who was trying to figure this out for me.

Any help appreciated.

Also noticed that double bonus lights up on ball 5, but not during gameplay when you get A-B-C. It still gives the double (quad) bonus, but it isn't lit.

Well, for one thing I don't understand the note from the tech, because opening switches on relays cannot cause the score motor to provide additional pulses for adding bonus. That can only happen when switches close, to enable the extra pulse(s). Also, you aren't getting one extra pulse as the note suggests, you are getting two extra pulses.

Do you have the schematic? Can you post a snippet of the schematic that shows the 1000 point relay coil, and the related circuitry to the right of that coil?

Long awaited bump.

Will post a pic tonight I hope.

One contact on your score motor is too wide, it doesn't reset the coil on the bonus at the "in between" bonus.
So instead of 1000/1000/step it becomes then 1000/1000/-/1000/1000/step.
Not really familiar with this game, but had this a few times on other Gottlieb games.
