Newbie working on his first EM project here. Early stages and just getting acquainted with the insides. I'm cleaning and inspecting everything in the backbox partly just because it needs it, but also because the score motor won't stop running. I'm on to the credit reel now and I've managed to turn it enough to get the reset coil unfrozen, but in the process I've managed to dork up the rotation so that reset (what should be 0 credits - the blank spot after 1) is about a quarter turn too low (landing on 33). I'm having trouble setting it back to the right position just using the 2 coil plungers. Can somebody give me a step-by-step or link me to one? Thanks!

Quoted from drsfmd:

The credit wheel is press fit, you spun it out of alignment.

I know I messed it up, but how do I fix it.

Thanks Rolf. It turns out one of the bolts rotated past the switches somehow. I was able to remove the bolt and rotate the bolt hole back below the switches and reinsert the bolt. It zeroes out correctly now.
