I didn't think this would be a difficult problem to diagnose and fix, but the solution has eluded me so far.
Game was purchased in ratty condition, but after cleaning/adjustments I had it working perfectly. Then when I turned it on last week, it kept sending balls into the shooter lane after the game was supposed to be over. (The game over light is not coming on, but scoring does function with the rogue balls.)
I checked the ball count stepper unit in the backbox--everything seems good. I checked the game over interlock relay, everything seems good--although I noted that I could manually end the game by releasing the trip latch on the game over relay. Looking at the Williams manual, I noted that the trip circuit on the game over relay receives energy from three other relays--the game, outhole, and ball index relays--so I checked them also. All seem fine.
Before I start going through everything else in a semi-blind manner, has anybody else experienced this with this (or similar) machine?
Thanks,
Mike
