ok right now as it is when you drop in a quarter is gives 2 credits.
this is a 2 slot coin door. from the manual, there were some games with 2 slot coin door, and some with 3 slot coin door.
i need to make it 1 credit for a quarter.
there is no "1st coin chute adjustment" jones plug in the machine that the schematics show. im assuming that is for the 3 slot version.
there are only jones plug adjustments for 2nd and 3rd coin chute.
both located in the inside left of the coin door on panel bottom.
does anyone have this game and know what to do?
thanks

there is not a single jones plug with 2 positions in there except for the "2nd coin chute adjustment" and another 2 position plug with single jones that is for giving an extra ball or credit when you get a certain score.
that's the issue, there isn't one for a "1st coin chute adjustment".
schematics shows one, but its not there. as i was stating, i believe schematics is for 3 slot door set up.

it appears it is picky backed, well a few wires are...not all of them.. the only relay that energizes if a quarter is put into either of the 2 slots is the 3rd chute relay. there is a white/blue wire and a white/black wire that is in the middle of the coin door wound up. for giggles i unwound them and stripped the wires and touched them to see if another relay would fire and nothing happened.

Nope that doesnt work. No matter any position it gives 2 credits.

correct cactus jack. mine is the 2 slot version, no adjustment. i did figure out how to make it work though. there was a white/blue wire and a white/black wire in the middle of coin door wound up, never used. i thought both were the same color until i looked real close...a little while ago.. i took my chances and ran the white/blue to the spot that was jumped between both coin door switches that i assume went to the 3rd coin chute adjustment. that wire made the "coin relay" work (no number by it). and now its 25 cents for one 1 play. when a quarter is inserted it starts the game right away not puting a credit on the wheel. After it resets and ejects the ball into shooter lane, then you can drop in a second coin if 2 players are needed.
thx everyone
