Whenever an extra ball is awarded by making a replay score or hitting a lit outlane special, Laser Cue turns on the bell and NEVER turns it off - even after the game is over. The only way to turn off the bell is to hit the lit ball target during normal play. This activates a different routine that is properly programmed to turn the bell solenoid on and off.

A fix to the ROM code to address this bug has been posted on Pinside.
