Greetings expert troubleshooters. I am currently having issues with the outhole/center drain and right outlane switch not registering. testing the outhole switch with a meter it seems to close properly. i just noticed the right outlane not working as I was wrapping up for the night so I havent tested that yet. Prior to this problem I was having an issue with the mist setup which i think i fixed by bending the right gate up. of course i thought i had it all set, "got my quarters out" and just ran that one final test when i discovered the outhole issue. one thing i noticed is that when the end of ball didnt register the game eventually went into ball find mode and when that completed the end of ball registered and the next ball came out. im thinking it may be an issue up closer to the mpu but dont know how to simulate a switch closure up there. it looks like pin 4 on j207 and pin 9 on j205 are the common pins to that switch. do I jump those two together to simulate the switch closure? I dont want to blow it up. any advice will be much appreciated.

Quoted from Billc479:

I recommend you go into test mode and test the switches first. I wouldn't go jumpering things until you find out if there are other switches not working.
After the switch tests, let us know what you found.

thanks bill. all other switches aside from the two I mentioned work in test mode
