I have a Gottlieb Mystic Marvel that I am trying to get running. I had a good tech work on it and he had it running at his shop but it started acting up once I got it home. There was some trouble with the HOLD coil. A different (wrong) coil was installed in order to trouble shoot the game. I ordered a correct coil from PBR (still waiting for it). Then I read in Clay's EM Guide about removing a wire from the HOLD coil and adding and ON/OFF switch so that the game will light up without starting a game. Then I put a plastic shim behind the HOLD coil plate that put the switches in the activated position. So now when the game was plugged in and the switch turned ON the game lit up.
BUT, I can not start a game. The Start button does nothing (there are credits on the game).
So I attached some pictures. One shows the new power cord connected to the fuse and transformer (black wire from power cord went to ON/OFF switches, then black wire from ON/OFF to fuse, white wire of power cord to center of tranformer, green wire from power cord to case of transformer). Another shows the ON/OFF switch I added. The third shows the black wire I removed from the HOLD and put a wire cap on it. The fourth is a section of the schematic.
I am wondering if removing the black wire was incorrect and maybe affected other coils?
Does anyone have ideas why the game play will not start or what I did wrong?
