Whoa....177 posts.
I can't read them all.
I'll stay in touch after you install the new board(s).

One clarification.
Coils in Gottlieb System 1 games, while a game is in play, always have power. What they don't have, until commanded by the MPU, is a path to ground. This is true for most pinball systems. Just FYI.

Fun game that I have fond memories of.
I really need to get mine un-buried and get some play time in!

Quoted from Genieye:

It was fine awhile ago but when I put the new boards in it stopped working.

There might be a "novelty" setting that causes the game to add points instead of EBs. It would still be odd that it doesn't extinguish the lamp once achieved.

Make sure the switch is registering in switch test.

That picture reminds me of how precise the shot must be to claim the EB or Special. Good times lighting one/both of them up and then trying to hit them with a flipper that doesn't put those targets in the sweetspot.
