3 am PST and just canNOT figure this out. The thousands score reel of my Flying Carpet machine is trying to advance, but won't. The coil is firing away (click click click), but the reel is not advancing. I've taken in apart ~10 times now, completely, and cleaned everything. I can manually advance the reel, and it feels smooth and no different than any of the other reels that are working fine.
Is it possible that the coil is bad and not strong enough to move the reel forward? By the sound of it, the coil IS firing, and seemingly with some strength. But having trouble moving the reel.
Is it possible that a relay is out of adjustment and is not giving the reel coil enough power, etc.?
Or is it some mechanical issue in the reel itself? I swapped parts between the 100s reel and 1000s reel (score wheel, gear, springs), and the 100s still work and the 1000s still don't.
