Welcome to Pinside! There are many people here more than happy to help you, but it first helps if you understand the manual and schematic. You can download them here.

Are you saying that scoring 100 when you already have 990 resets all the reels to 0?
Or are you saying in my above scenario, the 900+100 doesn't carry to the 1000 reel but instead leaves the score at 90?

Should that read 990 + 100?
Thanks. The scenario I am talking about is that after I launch the 1st ball and begin to use the game it resets. By that I mean is that while the ball is still in play; as soon as I reach 1,000 points -the flippers lock for a few seconds and the scoring resets to 0.
thanks again for the help

Does the Coin relay activate when this happens?
Since you won't be able to see the Coin relay while you're playing the game, run a Bulb tester connected across the Coin relay coil out the front door.
