The best thing for me I think is to email a video of the problem to somebody?

Figuring Rolf will chime in soon. He's a ShangriLa owner.

What's the 3&4 Reset relay doing when this happens? It should be pulsing smoothly, 5 times per 1/2 motor revolution. If it's buzzing too, check this circuit, starting with the indicated motor switch.

Many times the top switches on the score motor get caught on things and get knocked out of adjustment. As Howard has suggested, check the 3/4 reset coil and also check switch c on the 2nd impulse cam. It might not be closing as the motor turns.

Hey thanks guys! You know, I had looked at that C switch before and it was indeed touching, but this time I noticed sparking between the two blades each time... So I adjusted the metal blade in between them so that it didn't touch them both at the same time and poof, problem solved. Why did they use a metal piece in between those blades?
