Have a magnotron that from an earlier topic wasnt doing much of anything . Ot was stuck on player four ball one and would play continuously.
Since i took a look at and adnusted the player unit on the back head .
Now it will play a complete game .count all five balls.you can play 1 .2.3 of four players.but the funny thing is no matter how many players you select to play ,player four is always acfivated .so if you play 2 players .player one goes. Then player 2 then player 4 .it will go this way with each player playing in order incl.player 4 .the other thing is the players selected will play all five balls,but if a four player game isnt selected only the number of players selected play 5 balls,player 4 .will only play 4 .unless a 4 player game is selected ,then all get 5 balls.

Ok made the adjustments you recommemded it still wasnt working at first then i noticed the last ball relay was sticky not completley releasing when unlatxhed i cleaned it up and cleaned the contacts and it seems to be working fine now .
My last problem is how to adjust that gate on the playfield .it seems like a kind of flimsy affair the way it operates. Mine was opening way to far now i adjusted the gate wire and it doesnt move much either way .any hints??
Thanks for the help
