Hi.
On my ROYAL FLUSH (76) I have a problem.
It plays as it should until drain of last ball.
Instead of game over it keeps loading balls and I can play unlimited balls with all features lit as normal, but it gives no point under play or the count for bonus.
The light for game over is not lit...
Any help is appreciated
Thanks
Stefan Sweden

Is the game counting up the balls right until 5. Do you get double bonus on ball 5 and each ball after it?

#3 5 years ago

Yes it count up to 5 balls. After the 5'th drain nr 5 bulb turns off as well as the light for the scores at the backbox.
No double bonus is lit at all, and if any bonus at the 5'th ball its normal not double.

If it’s like my Grand Prix (and it may not be since it’s williams),you need to clean the ball count unit contacts and make sure wiper arm is making proper contact.

Does it have a Last Ball relay (maybe BX)? Check that and also your Game Over relay for cleanliness and good contact, esp. on M/B sw.

The gameover relay does not energize. If I do manually the game acts like its the last ball and light the sign for gameover and the game stays game over asit should
So there is something that does not "tell" that relay to energize.

heres the basic path for the game over relay. id start by seeing if one of these switches isnt making. if not there are a few other paths to the player units

O BX M4C

What's the Last Ball (BX) relay doing?

The lower coil at BX energize at start of a new game but the coil that's over and supposed to activate/deactivate the switches does not move at all.
Thanks for helping

If the A-9735 coil on the BX interlock relay never activates, inspect and diagnose this circuit with Alligator clip jumper wires.
This is for a single player 5 ball game.

All the switches avt as they shold, now it's only the player unit left to check. Hope its obvious what to check for.
Ill do it tomorrow...

Thanks all!
It was as simple (as most often) as just clean the dot's at the player unit rotating disc.
Now it works 100%

Best to all who have comment my post
