Hi all.

I have a satin doll that has a few issues. When power is on the score motor keeps spinning. I can go in back and manually put the ball to player 1 and GI comes on and flippers and all targets work even scoring works fine.....but that score motor keeps spinning.

Another issue is that the credit reel is gunked up so I know I need to clean that up.

And probably my biggest concern is the stepper unit on the underside of the playfield. There is a coil that is being held and started smelling and looks burnt from previous use ( still works). See the photo for the coil in question.

Thanks to anyone who can help me out......excited to see this up and running......needs repairs and repainting too but want to get it working first. Will post progress once I figure out this site. Lol.

HowardR Thank you for the response. I have another EM game but don't know too much about them. I'm not sure I get what you mean? Do you mean......do the wipers line up with the picture (IE: is the spacing between the wipers and the disk pads the same as the above diagram.) Also .....is this the bonus multiplier? I will check to see if they correspond when I get home! Thanks much.

I found it and even figured out the way the points work. Yay. However still no idea why that solenoid is engaged. heres a picture though. Thanks very much in advance for all your help.

Ok.....so I should look to see if either of those leaf switches needs to be fixed and be set to normally open? Also, I can find the EOS switch. for the stepper unit, but will the other switch be labeled ( 5 ) or is there a way to find out where that switch is?

Awesome. I'd love to become less reliable on others for these kinds of questions, do you have any recommendations for how to get good at reading schematics or how to troubleshoot these.....more than just experience and time. Also.....how were you able to narrow it down to those 2 possible switches? Thanks so much again for all your help.....it is greatly appreciated.

All right.......I've checked all of the rollover switches and they are all N.O. I then adjusted the end of stroke switch for the bonus step up to N.C. it was wide open....I think. I'll add a picture of how it looks now after the adjust (lowest left switch on the picture of the bonus stepper up). I followed the EOS of the bonus up to relay #1 on the schematic and checked that.....but honestly.... I'm not sure what its set as. I've added the photos best as I can......I may need to draw a schematic of it to help make sense. ALSO....I might not have mentioned....The bonus stepper up coil ONLY stays stuck on once the bonus is done calculating ( I can see all of the lights counting down the scores when the machine is on). Once that is done.....the coil engages and the score motor continues to cycle. Thanks all again in advance.

I may have figured this out by using the manual. See the photo below. I will try to follow the leads from the 2 & 3 junction on the bonus stepper to CAM Switch 6A and then use the schematic to try and figure out the correct way to set that.

If this is a nonsense idea for a solution please let me know, but I am fairly excited about finding this all on my own.

Thanks again to everyone who has been helping me....after this its on to that score motor.
