just got a doodle bug out of the basement of a very old house that was being flipped,(i just missed an old wooden phone booth with phone that was also in the basement,oh well .)the machine was filthy on the outside and dusty on the inside.looks like it hadn't worked in many years. the coil for the lock relay was broken off ,i have ordered a new one ,in the mean time i have taped the relay closed
I don't have a schematic
Is the function of the switch stacks on the score motor similar to those on the dipsy doodle,except for the player matches and player index?
I ask because i got the game to reset most of the time when i press the credit button and it will give me 5 balls showing on the back glass, and it ejects the ball onto the shooting lane to start the game ,I play the ball ,ball drops and most of the time will be ejected to the shooting lane again ,backglass shows 4 balls to play ,ball is played but two things don't work:
1 the ball isnt ejected onto shooting lane after the second ball drains
2 the kickout hole doesn't work the majority of the time(no matter which ball is being played)
good contact is being made under the playfield when the little button is depressed by the ball when it falls into the kickout hole ,if i manually close the transfer relay in the backhead it will work ,if i manually close the eject relay it will work
havent cleaned or adjusted the switch stacks on the score motor yet
