Working on a startup (score motor spins endlessly) problem on a Gottlieb "300".

I noticed that there is a green wire not attached to anything near the 2nd Chute relay (W in the schematics).

From my meager understanding of the schematic, I believe the green wire should be reattached to the terminal that also has the bright orange wire connected to the coil. (the schematic shows a green wire attached to the W relay coil).

Is this correct?

And could this problem cause the score motor to spin endlessly? I noticed from other score motor Pinside posts that any relay listed on the schematic to the right of the motor symbol could cause this problem.

Final question: Does the 2nd chute relay even matter if the game has no coin mechs and is set for free play?

Thanks for your help.
