I'm getting a Strato Flight today and I know the replay button doesn't start a game. On the schematic I see several switches in the area of interest that are labelled "BK", as in Replay Step UP Zero BK or Ball Count Zero BK.

Digging around I think that BK means 'break', but what should I look for as a switch? A switch that 'breaks' or opens at zero? Maybe that sounds right. Any confirmation or help?

Thanks, Henry

Yes in this context, BK means 'break', and as you said, the switch opens when the Replay unit gets to zero or the Coin Unit gets to its last position. Also, wire colors can be very helpful for identifying components like switches.

Thank you HowardR, knew you'd know the details.
