Firepower Williams, 1980

I need a little help here to get this machine 100%:

Problem - Whenever I lock up 2 balls, the 3rd one ejects into the shooting lane and the right ramp ball eject coil keeps firing and will not stop (there are 3 balls in the game) until game ends or I remove one of the locked up balls.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

I'd start with a simple check of diodes on all the coils. Look for cold or cracked solder joints.

Yep, and also run through the built-in diagnostics and check all those switches to make sure they're working correctly.

My guess is you've got a stuck switch at #57 or #46.

Thanks guys.. checked all the diodes and they looked fine. Will do a diognostic on switches tonight.
