I have a Williams EM pinball machine I have been restoring. Mostly cabinet work. I’m no EM guru! But I was able to get all lights and parts working unti now! The game kept running all the ball return arms and the Play Counter got so hot it started smoking! Help! Any thoughts! I don’t know where to go from here.

Can I just bypass this counter?

Yes, you could just disconnect it, but it sounds like you have another problem that you need to resolve. Something is sending a constant surge to it.

Check the switches on the reset relay, game over relay, coin relay and score motor switch 1B. Make sure all the switches are clean and adjusted properly. Look for shorting wires at the switch stack lugs...
