    (First screen shot) Shows the form working correctly.  "Attached Garage" is selected which unhides the number of vehicle spaces.  The client then selects the number of spaces "1-2 Car" which adds $25 to the total below.  If the client decides not to have the garage inspected, he or she will deselect that check box.  However (Second Screen shot), if they decided that they do want it inspected, thus selecting the option of "Attached Garage" the total does not change when they select it the second time.

    Please do set your form to clear the values as soon as the field is hidden.

    That will allow you to clear the selected value in the dropdown, which will then show the empty dropdown once again and correct value in the total.

    To set it like so, you should go to Preferences > Advanced Setting > Clear Hidden Field Values and set it to Clear On Being Hidden.

    You can see how it would work by checking the following form: https://form.jotform.com/53056351953961

    Once you do so it should resolve your issue, but please do let us know how it goes.
