ok, long story short...
Machine was working fine, starting fine scoring fine, playing fine (except one little issue). I removed the PF for 5 minutes to get a closer look at the coin unit, when I replaced it, this is how it came back to life...

>> I have checked the fuses
>> I have checked the Jones plugs (on the PF)
>> I manually added scores, and manually game ended, then it clears and kicks out the ball, but otherwise the PF is unresponsive
>> Tilt switch is open.

I know its something simple... but if I dont find it today I have to put it away for a week to park the car in the garage (pending snow storm)...

So, I am assuming that I should be looking at the relays?

Are lights to the PF different circuit?

thx

I have looked at those, and they seemed right, but I will double check them.

Now I get it,,, switch on relay.

seems to be getting closer now.
thanks

All of those seem to be as they are suppose to be...

@edednedy... thanks, with that tidbit of info I was able to finally isolate the odd poblem... It seems that the bracket that holds the relay nylon piece had popped off rendering it relatively useless but not entirely useless looking... cool. Now onward to my original problems... Think ill start another thread for that! Thanks yall.

Just in case anybody is still looking at this, got the problem solved, then removed PF again (what was I thinking?) now similar problem, but not same cause. Nothing happens when I hit restart button. Otherwise machine is totally alive... sigh.

Any ideas?

This happened a second time when I removed the PF... I cleaned the Jones plugs well and problem SEEMS to be resolved.
