My issue is a weird one (to me anyhow, haha). I can play a 1-player game fine with no issues. If I add multiple players, the game has trouble advancing to player 2. Sometimes I have to drain the ball more than once before it advances to player 2. The weird thing to me is that it NEVER hangs up advancing to player 3 or to player 4 or back to player 1. I'm not good at fixing EM's, so I'm trying to seek out some direction as to what piece of hardware I need to look at. Is the problem more than likely linked to the coin count relay or the player count relay, or neither?

Quoted from Deez:

Mine was doing the exact same thing - I cleaned all the contacts for the step up coil and it didn't improve. Turned out to be a loose connection on the jones plug in the head.

We were recently in the head working on a startup issue, perhaps something got hit? I'll check there too!
