The upper playfield lights on my Earthshaker are not working and apparently haven't worked since I've had it. I thought they were just burned lamps that weren't replaced due to how hard they are to get to. But I just installed new plastics and ramps and put in LEDs while I was at it. The upper playfield still does not light except for flashers. (lamps in photo) In test mode, the upper playfield does not light while the lower playfield does. Any ideas?

I can look under the hood of mine later tonight, but look for a GI relay on the underside of pf. Near the back. Header pins may need to be reflowed or connector repinned.

Just in case, check out the bottom left fuse on your interconnect board (f4). That one has to do with the upper playfield gi I believe, while the top left has to do with thr lower GI. Also, check the yellow connector to the right of the fuses to make sure its not toasted. At least its a starting point.
