This game will not start with credits or a coin. drop a coin in and 2 credits pop up. Credit button don't work. Switch in backbox,
on credit unit is closed, and shows continuity. Manually pull in Start relay and score motor does it 120 degree turn but nothing else happens.
If I pull in the start relay along with the AX reset relay it will kick out a ball but player unit never advances to ball 2 (and other features aren't working either)

but one step at a time, just want to start with coin or credit button.
My question is, what is this on the schematic (arrow)?
Because...if I jumper right from the 15A fuse to the credit button...nothing. So.... I jumper past the credit button to the zero position replay switch in backbox

the subtract replay unit counts down one but the start relay does nothing. Looks like it has to go through here (arrow) to fire the start relay this Im not sure where it is, never seen this on earlier Gottliebs (this is last of the EM era 1978)

The switch is likely on the subtract arm of the Replay (or Credit) unit. So when the Subtract Replay Unit solenoid fires, its plunger pulls the arm to subtract the credit and at the end of its stroke the arm should close the double normally open switch so that brown-white, blue-white and orange-white wires are all shorted together.
