Quoted from SteveFury:Hmm... I don't understand the symptoms. When you say "1 ball to play" do you mean the machine will reset a game and sometimes start on ball 2,3,4 or very rarely 5 for the first ball? How does a machine indicate ball 7?
It counts down from 5 to 1, unlike my Gottlieb that indicates at startup ball 1 and goes to ball 5. It will indicate on startup 1 ball left to play usually, maybe 2 or 3 and as an add a ball machine it registers up to 9 balls to play but has only gone as high as 7.
Quoted from pabilo21:I had exactly the same problem and it turned out to be a sticky pivot point in the ball count unit. Does the unit perform normally when you manually advance and decrease the ball count?
It usually performs normally, but occasionally it will stick when manually advancing the stepper. I will check those pivot points, perhaps I've over tightened one of them. I'll let you guys know how I get on. I appreciate the help.
