    Hello all, This coin switch on my Capt. Fantastic was a mess when I got it. Studied the schematic and thought I fixed it but still not working correctly. Could someone please post a photo of this switch wiring?
    Thank you.

    Switch (front to back). Three connections....white, blue-white, red-white. Two Yellow wires dead end...not connected. Don’t know what they connect to...my coin unit doesn’t operate.

    Karl, Will your coin switch give you a credit if you manually close the switch?
    Thanks for the reply.

    Never tried this before....I close the switch and get two credits on the credit wheel with corresponding knock with the back box knocker

    Thanks Karl, Mine was also set for free play (somehow) but I have issues. My score motor wont turn even if I manually hit the coin switch. The only way my knocker and credit wheel advances is on the 3rd time dropping the targets, not even when the special lane is lite. For some stupid reason, I like to drop quarter's in my machines to add credits and start playing.
    I think I still have switches that need to be cleaned and adjusted. It appears my coin switch wiring now correct.
    Just FYI who might be reading this, I've had to do some slight Z-Bends on 2 switch leaves through out to get them to make contact. It drives you crazy trying to do continuity after you thought you cleaned all the firkin WD40 off of everything. I do have fun learning this hobby and getting these machines back to original.
    Thanks again Karl.
