Hello,
I have been working through restoring my Sonic Butterfly and have made it to the back box. I've got some sticking happening on various scoring wheels and the player stepper is sluggish and has reset issues, but I figured I'd start with the credit/match wheel as I thought it would be a quick fix before moving on to the other issues. Apparently I was wrong... I am having trouble figuring out what has happened and how to fix it.
The wheel (1-36, blank in between) travels between blank space (about half way between 1 and 36) to 13-14. I figured maybe the wheel needed to be rotated so I marked current position and removed the nut. It is keyed so I can only rotate it 180 degrees and doing so I still cannot get home position to be at zero. After rotating the wheel numbers do not line up so its previous position seems like the correct one, apart from the count being way off.
Any suggestions? I suspect I'm missing something obvious.
