  • Need help with a Chicago coin basketball champ

    Trying to work through the game. Having issues with the contact assembly and game over relay. When the coin slide is pushed in it in turn pushes the game over relay on the shuffle panel and there is a piece that locks in the contact assembly opening up the game over contacts. For some reason the coil is energized and keeps tripping the locked in piece so it keeps staying at game over. I need to know how this is supposed to work. The wiring may be wrong so I may need help as to what goes where. Sorry for making it sound so confusing. If you want to email direct it whytattooyou at gmail dot com. Thanks Jon

    Did you check the TILT switches? It looks like any TILT will energize
    GAME OVER.
