Open coin door, see four buttons labeled begin test, service credits, and + and -.
Push begin test once, any errors the machine tracks show up then. Push again to enter area where adjustments, utilities, tests are.
Stop on tests. Hit the + button to go through switches, coils, flashers, etc. Stop on one you want and hit begin tests. For coils and flashers - enable the high power interlock on coin door.
To escape anything hit service credits.
Check the Internet Pinball Database for manual to help you, pictures of diagnostic switches to familiarize yourself.
Since you are new to this, I would run coil tests - cycle through them, same with flashers, and all lamps test - it flashes them on and off.
I wouldn't get too fancy since you don't know what you are doing. Just some basics to make you happy.
If you think you really mucked things up, turn the game off and then back on to get to attract mode.
