Not exactly sure how to phrase this but if I manually trip the 100,000 reel, it resets fine, but when I reach over 99,999 in score, the game does not turn the 100,000 reel over from a 0 to a 1. Tried finding topics of a similar nature but couldn't.

I'm thinking this could be a problem with the 10,000 reel not properly communicating with the 100,000 reel, or something wrong with the score motor? I have trouble reading schematics so anybody who can put it into plain English and/or explain the proper part of the schematic would be much appreciated

Edit: I meant 10,000 not 100,000

Oh man I'm sorry, your comment made me realize I'm talking about the completely wrong area. It's the 10,000 relay that doesn't work, and since the 10,000 relay doesn't work, I can't test if the 100,000 light lights up. I confused myself because I assumed that the last relay would be the highest kind of digit (100,000's place). Also, because of how my game's been wired up before I got it, it's set to free play, and when I hit the start button again after starting a 1-player game, the game tries to reset itself again, then kicks the ball out as if its starting another 1 player game. Not sure how to get player 2-4 working. Thanks for the reply, I'll take a look at my game when I have the time.

Okay so I tried connecting between these 2 points from the player unit to the wires that goes into position 9 on the 1,000 relay. Pics are shown. Nothing happened. Assuming the tilt relay and 1,000 point relay are good, does this mean the wire(s?) going from the player relay to the 1,000 relay 9th position are bad/shorted?

If it's not that, then how can I test the connection between the tilt and the 1,000 relay? Is the 1,000 relay located somewhere in pic 3 or am I completely offbase?

Sorry for the non-descriptive write-up last time. I'll try my best to explain what I've done.

In regards to #1... I couldn't for the life of me find a solid brown wire anywhere connected to either the player unit or the 1,000 reel, so I wasn't able to test this. I believe I was able to properly test experiment #2... I found the blue-yellow wire connected to the player unit, and I hooked the other end to a brown-white wire that is attached to a small white piece of plastic that's attached to the coil on the 10,000 reel (not directly on the switch stack). Is this the brown-white wire you're referring to? When I did this the reel would advance once and then lock up and keep attempting to turn. When I just touched the alligator clip to the brown-white wire for a split second, the reel would advance with no problems.

Would these be the 1,000 relays? Another thing I've just realized which may be useful to know is that when I hit the start button and start the game, the player 2 and 4 1,000 relays make a few rotations during the "set up" phase, even when they start at 0 (the 2 relays circled in red are firing when this happens), but this doesn't happen to the player 1 and 3 1,000 relays.

Also Ive confirmed that the 100,000 light for all 4 players does come on if I manually touch the two contacts of each 100,000 relay together.
