Won't start. Checked slam switchs all good, credits on credit wheel.

does it start with manually pressing the start relay? If so I'd check the contacts on the credit wheel
If it doesnt.. can you press in the hold/tilt hold relays? do you have 24v? (does the score motor complete a 120 degree rotation when moved off of home? A sanity check I always do)
Quoted from Raff:Hi pinhead
Manually pressing the start relay resets all score reels but the outhole relay keeps clicking .if I force the outhole relay to reset the game resets and goes to ball 1 but none of the 3 outhole kickers work.
power to the flippers? need pieces of the schematic...
but yea if it starts via start relay the the credit wheel zero contact is probably dirty...
Quoted from HowardR:Exactly how far is it getting through the startup sequence from the manual?

Quoted from Raff:Gets to the outhole relay and score motor keeps turning.
By "Gets to the outhole relay" do you mean the Outhole relay successfully activates? Or that it does everything up to then and the Outhole relay doesn't activate?

It was the wires on the coin lockout relay someone had removed the relay and left all 3 wires .loose I joined the 2 lighter colour wires together and the start button worked everything came back to life.
Thanks to everyone for helping.
