Not the best angle to see with my pic but you are correct.

EOS wiring goes to center and far right terminal

Quoted from Mathazar:

This is more of a note-to-self To Do list for the items I've found so far now that the machine coins-up and starts 1, 2, 3, and 4 player games:
* Left flipper blows 50v/10a fuse (mis-wired and wrong part number - ordered new AF-25-500/28-1000)
* Player 4 10's score reel stuck (coil is toasted - ordered new CD-29-1600)
* Misc. drop targets fall when the bank is reset (both target banks will eventually be torn down, cleaned, and reassembled with new springs and targets)
* Top left pop bumper dead, haven't triaged yet
* Misc. bulbs out
* Slings occasionally machine-gun (will probably just replace the misshapen leaf springs instead of adjusting....they look pretty beat up)
* Top Outhole works physically, (ejects ball and collects points for all values), but the Top Hole Unit assembly underneath the playfield is all jacked up and will not automatically advance the various point values. The coil is fried, and the plastic actuator arm appears to be melted inside the coil sleeve. The coil bracket is also missing from the assembly. I can manually advance the bonus value to the next one by pulling up on the coil (since it's not secured with a bracket) which in turn pulls up on the actuator arm (since it's melted to the coil sleeve) until the unit clicks signifying the Outhole point value has advanced.
Here are some pix of the toasted Top Hole assembly....I have a feeling parts for this may be hard to find. Anyone have any advice?[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

So it’s a bit worse than most but considering the purchase price, it’s a good deal.

Your over the top buzzer is still there, very cool as some of them get ripped out. Unobtanium.
