Experience with Trapshoot repair, transmitter/receiver replacement with
garage door opener components ("I can now play the game from the end of my
block, no joke!"). Arcade collector since 1990.
Mike has also provided a Gremlin Trapshoot tip for the day: "If the game does not remove a credit at the end of a game (i.e. play infinitely on one quarter), it is more than likely corrosion on the coin box plug that plugs into the Trapshoot. The coin box uses a double pole relay (why!?!) and both poles MUST be making good contact! Since the game took credit just fine, I didn't consider looking at the connector. I was all over the schematic looking at the decrement circuit, change parts, etc. In the end, a little sandpaper to clean off the corrosion and the problem was fixed."
Thanks, Mike!
