How to reset high score in original Dig-Dug machine?
« on: September 10, 2006, 10:20:50 pm »
Thanks to those who helped me get my Dig-Dug machine running again... you can see the struggle over in the monitor forum.  But I have a new question...

How do I reset the high-score back to zero?

I purchased this cabinet and got the monitor working again so that I could give this machine to my Dad for father's day.  (one of his favorite games)  Now that I have it I would like for him to be able to set his own high-scores rather than those of previous owners.  Thanks for the help.

To reset the High-Score table,

Set the self test switch to on. Simultaneously push and hold the pump and utility coin switches for 10 seconds. Then set the self test switch to off.

  ;D hey Johnm160, if you still have that manual available, I could use a copy.  :)  My office just got a refurbished digdug machine and it would be nice to have a better understanding of this epic classic.  :) thanks.  You can find my email me via my user account on this forum.
