    I have been working on my Gottlieb Top card. My number eight target does not work and traced it to the relay bank and my number 8 target relay coil has both wires loose. Can someone take a photo of where they go so i know I have them in the correct location? One of them is obvious. Just not sure about the other one.

    Thanks Mark, You are Correct. The coil is working fine. Light does now work as well as the other issue you mentioned. One solders back on to the top there. I'm not sure where the other goes on that switch. I can't seam to see where it came off.

    Thanks MarkG. If you look right above your right arrow that is where one of them solders to. I don't know where the other one came from. I don't see any excess solder area.

    Quoted from MarkG:

    Have you looked underneath the solder lugs, with a mirror if necessary?

    Thanks MarkG. I will put a mirror under the post and with a better light and see what's under there. It almost has to go under there as the wire is not long enough to go much farther.

    I was able to figure out that the Blue and white wire is for the light and I was able to solder it to the top post. The white and brownish wire I have no clue where it goes. Can't find any indication of a solder joint. It's only about 4" long (from the wire bundle) and can't go far.

    That's it!!! Got it soldered up and actually played a game. Now off to my next problem. Second game did not kick a ball out and the motor switch just keeps spinning. Fun fun.

    Quoted from MarkG:

    The brownish-white wire is actually a faded red-white wire that goes on the bottom right solder lug:
