Hi Charlie
does Your pin has paper-tags telling the name of the relays ?
DANGER - You are handling 110VAC. In Your schematics I see a "Switch on S-Start-Relay" and a "Switch on R-110-Volt-Hold-Relay" (((the Coil on R-Relay is feeded 24VAC --- BUT it does HOLD the circuitry of 110VAC))).

Please use a wooden stick (insulation) and gently press --- and a quarter of a second later let go: Press the armature (anchor-plate) of the S-Relay. I hope for luck so the pin comes to life and starts a new game. Also (wooden stick): Press the armature of R-Relay. Keep Your hands of everything metal. Want a friend to be ready to unplug the 110 main power cord ? Greetings Rolf
