While I was playing a game this evening, the left up kicker for my Gottlieb Bad Girls stopped firing the coil. The switch recognizes the ball, but is not kicking the ball out. I checked the fuse (F13) but it appears the fuse looks fine ( the F13 fuse also is tied to the right kicker which is working as it should. Anyone have any ideas? Photos attached. Thanks !

Did you measure with a multimeter the Ohm's on the coil?
Sounds like you have a wire break.

Coil or driver transistor. With a multimeter, ohm out the coil to see what the resistance is and if that checks out then test the transistor on the driver board that drives that coil to see if it's bad.
