    One if the ball count switches is different and not sure if it is getting a good connection.

    It usually says 4 balls missing.

    My thoughts are to cut, clean and resolder the one in question.

    Anything else to be aware of?

    Ball counting on this has always been a little off.

    Couple things to fix. The second switch in from the left, the diode is in the wrong direction. Look at the white band , it's facing the opposite ways of the other switches. From what I can see in the picture.
    Also looks like you have 7 balls in a 6 ball game. Remove the extra ball.
    Do those two things and let us know how it works then

    Good eye on the diode.

    Kba78 thanks it worked! (I am truly greatfull, haven't played this game in 4 months because of that)

    I had some new diodes so I swapped it out in the right direction and it works noticeably better.

    Still spits out an extra ball at random.
    Now when extra ball drains it still plays.

    No if I could just get that center scoop shot to not ricochet off 7 out of 10...

    Quoted from lowkeyfilms:

    I hear people have good luck with adhesive backed foam weather stripping.
    Placing a small piece inside the hook of the scoop softens the hit so it falls in more.
