I thought I was down to one problem, but after watching a video on game play/rules It seems I have two. Initially, there was the bonus countdown giving occasional game credits(no where near replay score). Then the video showed the two top PF lights(pic) for saucer award to be alternating with every 10pt score. The machine I am working on does it somewhat whenever and not even close to every 10pt score. There is mention of an alternating relay in the video, but I cannot find it on schematic or on machine with so many relay labels missing.
The erroneous game credits during Bonus countdown, do not happen if I pull out all the high score plugs, but will still happen if I pullout the match on/off plug. The credits do not seem random, for instance, on a 5000 w double bonus countdown on 1 ball I will get a single credit, next ball same Double Bonus value it will give me 2. This was repeated several times during my vane attempts at sleuthing the issue.
The game is being repaired for a friend at the VFW as it was donated to them. I have no manual for this title nor schematic but did find schematic on line below.
I tried to upload the schematic I poached from the site but kept getting errors. Here is the Pinside link to the post with schematic.

I am anxious to get the machine returned but I need some fresh eyes on the problems as I am now in a closed loop in my brain. Any/all help is immensely appreciated.
