How is the pendulum tilt and the ball roll switch? They should be open.

Quoted from ibis:

The hold relay R is NOT staying on.
All slam tilt switches are now closed(the one on the PF was not closed, it is now)
Roll ball tilt switch is open(not a slam tilt switch so I assume it is an open switch)
And yes I do have a schematic.

Playfield one should be open, coin door, motor board and backbox closed.

That certainly would determine if it is indeed a tilt circuit issue.

The schematic is showing the status of relays after resetting a game and pulling the plug. Are you checking continuity with the machine on? Is the relay adjusted?

Quoted from ibis:

I am using alligator clips, one on my meter, the other on the point of contact.
The game is off when I am testing for continuity. Should I have the game on??

No, you are doing it correctly.

According to the schematic and what you are reporting, it appears that contacts of the R relay are closed when they should be open. Pull the small cotter pin on the relay, remove and examine it. If good, then check the wiring for a pinch or old repair.
