Can anyone give me a picture of the upper right contact board in the head of Dragonette at reset? The one I am working on is having problems resetting. I took it apart to clean it, and it appears that the wiper arms are not in the correct position at reset. Also, any hints on how to make it swing back freely at reset would also help. I cleaned off the axle and the barrel through the board, and tried to tighten the spring, but it didn't appear to help. Thanks.

Hi Gary,
Sometimes a very light application of dielectric grease on the wiper
contacts is all you need to get it to return home. It should return home
from one step or the maximum number of steps.
As for alignment, figure out the scoring display and set the unit to the minimum number and snug it up. See if the game makes sense, and adjust
as needed...
