Hey gang, I have a Williams Soccer that if you get a goal for the blue team, it will keep scoring for blue until another target is hit.
Any thoughts on what I should be checking?

Thanks!

Are these top rollovers working?

It may be the Selection relay, or the sw. on the Game relay if not.

Thank you! I will check those and report back tomorrow.

I got to look at it today, after poking around at it for an hour, I found and fixed three stuck switches, which SEEMS to have fixed the repeat scoring, but showed a different issue. The selection relay you mentioned is not firing to switch the teams. I couldn't find the cause, so tomorrow I am going to bring it into my shop and do some more digging. Both of the roll over switches register, but they are not firing off the selection relay. The blue one will turn on the blue team light on the BG and start scoring for it, but then it will never switch back to red. And the red one, if you hit it first, will light the red light and start scoring for it. But as soon as you hit the blue lane, it switches to blue and never changes again.

Thank you,
Randy

I'm not sure I totally understand the ruleset, but first ball selects the team. Do you have a full explanation of the game?

Hmmmm.... I am only going by what the owner says it should do. But looking at that.... He may be wrong.

Ok, so I just loaded it up on my digital pinball cab and confirmed that is indeed how it is supposed to work. Thank you very much, I would have been digging through that for days before I figured that out!

Some days I HATE EMs. So now, none of the ejects are happening. Left and right saucer or the goal eject. I figured I knocked a fuse loose when I was digging around with his non issue. Turns out, not so much.

Looks like it's this switch leading into the Eject relay. They're calling the goal eject the Shooter.

Have you looked at this schematic? It's pretty funky; the score motor switches aren't filled in and the wire colors up at the top are weird. I think it was unfinished, and I checked in with PBR about what they have and it is the same.

I have been trying to make heads or tails of it. I have no idea where that switch could be. I’ve tested the coils, they do work, the relays all seem to fire off as they should, just the eject coils never get their power signal to fire.

All three of the switches that should kick off the ejects, all work. None are stuck or dirty. They all kick off the relays as they should.

This table is so confusing, to be so simple.

Did you look around under the PF? Or, and this is always great fun, try tracing it from the score motor sw.?

Found it! Bad connection at the Jones plug.

Now I’m running away while it still works.

Thank you very much!!

Yay!! But you still need to find that switch ...

I believe the switch they are referring to, is the three switches that trigger a goal. One for the goal cup and one for each saucer.
