First look at the main fuse near the transformer. Probably 5A slo blow.
Spin the score motor manually to see if it can find its self stop position.
Manually actuate the start relay.

Open the game and prop the playfield up. Remember to remove the ball first.
There is a fuse holder near the the transformer. Check the fuse.
If fuse holder is snug and fuse is good, turn game on and spin the about 5” diameter cam counterclockwise and see if the motor catches on its own and moves to the next 120 degree detent. This would prove you have power.
If you have power manually push the “S” relay actuator laterally. The “S” relay will be labeled on the main relay board and positioned near the center of the rows of relays. See if the game will start from here.
Quoted from rotordave:Gryzzzzz before you go near the fuses pull the power plug out of
the wall. Lots of voltage around there.
Likely a blown fuse. Did you move the game at all? Some EMs, if
the slam tilt switch in the cabinet is open, it kills the power. I
had this with a Gottlieb Big Hit.

There is also a tilt switch on the coin door that needs to be closed. Be careful on this one as it channels 110v.
