Paddock Ball release (resized).jpg
#1 2 years ago

Alright, here I go again.
After not really messing with the machine for a few months, I found out that mice had gotten into the machine.
I looked over the wires, couldn't find anything wrong, have it a quick clean up inside, tried to start it up.
The score motor does everything it's supposed to, resets everything. But then it just keeps going, not spitting out the ball and looping.
Any ideas?

Is the Outhole relay active while the motor is running? That might be what's keeping the motor running. If the Outhole relay is active it could be that the Ball Release isn't firing to kick the ball into the shooter lane.

I'd start by checking the two switches in red. Less likely but possible are issues with the switches along the right side.
