Volley was 100% until is wasn’t. Went to start a new game and the 10,000 score reel did not reset, and the score motor ran non stop.
Been cleaning and checking switches but am missing something obvious I think.

Very sorry I deserted this. I had a family situation pull me away, and I don’t keep this game at home. Thanks for the help so far, I really appreciate it.

The zero position sw looks good and has been cleaned.
The motor does stop when 10k reel is reset to zero.
Game actually played once! But when I went to start another game the 10k reel wouldn’t reset again.
Reset to zero again.
Tried to start another game and it won’t play now and ball won’t eject to shooter lane.
10k reel is snappy and all looks good. Manually going through the 1k reel activates the 10k.

The reset bank will activate only when game was turned off, then on again (but 10k reel won’t reset nor will ball kick out).

If a new game is started without having first turned game off/on...Reset bank will not trip.

The score motor does not continue to run now, so I’m on to getting the 10k reel to reset. I don’t have a jumper here.

I have everything working now, but the 10k reel reset issue. Game plays perfect otherwise.
So I’m ahead of where I started.

All relays and switches have been gone over. All operate well but I’m at a loss to what I’m missing. I’m more of a visual tech and that fixes 95% for me. But this one is beating me up (sore back

I have the schematic here but those get tricky for me on certain issues. I’m not sure if I’m following it.

Thanks, I’ve been thru them but I’ll have to check again.

I’ll go thru everything again. I appreciate the help.
I was wondering if a switch on the score motor would cause this.
Again, everything plays now, just the 10k reel is not resetting.
I’ve been thru the score motor pretty well but wonder if I may have missed something there.
I’m close! I’ll get back to it this afternoon/eve.
Driving me a little batty.

The AX is good I think. Fingers crossed.

I believe I found my issue, alhough I haven’t fixed the problem yet. It has to be in the score reels.
When re-examining the 10k reel it looked good. Then I compared the switch action to a reel that was resetting properly...and I noticed they were off. After going back and forth I was getting different reels to not reset, make the score motor run etc. Everything but getting the 10k to reset, haha. I think i have the sequences off. It’s tricky. My eyes were strained so I’ll have to start again in a couple hours.

Much appreciated.
I feel the reel switches are my issue now. I need to sort it out with fresh eyes. There are two forward strokes but certain switches open and some stay closed... That’s my issue I’m pretty sure. I think I also went through and misaligned some when I thought I was aligning. Hate when that happens New problems pop up!
Thanks for the offer and I’ll let you know.

Sheesh I must be dumb and/or blind.
Vote now!

So after verifying the correct score reel positions for the zero, one and nine switches, I initially thought I had fixed the 10k reel issue. It reset! But then I noticed the 100s didn’t reset. Motor spins etc. I went out and bought a bright work light (I’m not at home where my tools were left, bought a magnifying glass, cleaned and sanded everything etc.
I’ve looked at it up and down. The switches have to be good.
Since my score reel issues are migrating I’m left to believe the problem lies elsewhere.

*While trying to fine tune all the reels I did keep going back and forth between them because different ones at times wouldn’t reset. I thought I was going crazy. Maybe I am.

Would my AX relay cause this? (Meaning: random reels not resetting). It’s been checked over multiple times ...but I sure am missing something.

Thanks for the help.
On the reels?
The only reason I was hesitant to go there is that now they have all taken turns not resetting. I’m not sure if my tweaking of those switches has done anything either since I didn’t find noticeable issues.

Fixed!
Thanks for everyone’s help.
It was in the AX relay. A tough to see switch had me fooled, which isn’t hard I guess

It was a back switch that actually moved slightly, harder to see and it was making it look like contact was being made. But it was from the pressure of the adjoining switch that was making the illusion. It was one of those y, or tuning fork looking, type double switch blades. Pressure on one moved the other. Drove me bonkers.
