Rolf: Yes, you are correct. When blue-orange wire is connected to its respective 2nd coin relay lug as per the schematic, one-player game plays normally and the "1stUp" lite comes on and stays on as it should when the credit button is pushed once, at start-up, asking for a one-player game. Ball is ejected and game is ready to play. But when the credit button is pushed a second time asking for a second player, the "2ndUp" lite comes on also (this should not happen). Both lites stay on thru game end. They do not alternate to indicate which player is "UP".
The other pair of lites that indicate how many players have paid, perform as they should ("1 or 2 can play").
Here's more info that may be unimportant:
When each "Player Up" lite comes on, so do the strip lites that illuminate each player's score reels.
I have the game wired for free play, and both coin mechanisms work for coin drops, but are not used. I did check these out thoroughly for faults, etc.
The machine worked fine for 6 years until the two "player-up lites" began to flicker intermittently back and forth during a 2-player game.
