Quoted from pinballdaveh:

Since there are 2 score motor switches in this circuit, I would turn the score motor service switch to off. Manually turn the cams until switches 1A and 2C close. Doing this might help find the reason why the coil isn’t firing while troubleshooting the circuit.

Not Sure there is a motor service switch. Where would it be located. I will check the switches.
Thanks

Quoted from pinballdaveh:

With gottlieb machines of this era the service switch is not a switch. It’s actually a single wire connected to a male pin, that disconnects the motor when unplugged. Usually located next to the motor.

Thanks will check it out.

Quoted from frenchmarky:

Is your First Ball Relay coming on when you score some points on ball 1? If it doesn't, the trough switch will reset the targets but game will stay on ball 1 forever, as you described. Or the relay is pulling in but could have switch issues.

First ball relay is pulling in when I score points. I have cleaned and adjusted all the switches on the relay. But I will check them again.
Thanks.

When I short the first ball relay to the relay in the player unit in the head and press the trough switch the player unit only makes one revolution. I think it is suppose to cycle through all 4 players? All of the coils in the path to the player unit seem fine and fire when I energize them.

Thank you everyone for your input. Finally got it fixed. Motor switch 2C was the problem.
