Quoted from V_piscopo:Just joined the club. Having an issue with my upper kick out hole. Switch registers in test mode and game play yet coil won't fire. Coil does not fire in test mode or game play. when coil is grounded it fires, when transistor is grounded coil fires. Coil tests good. I do not have a manuel, wondering what connector controls this coil? All other coils seem to work in game and test mode. Thanks.
Your driver/pre-driver transistor is probably bad. Usually they fail shorted and the coil locks on, but they can fail open too.
Since the coil fired when you grounded the tab on the transistor you verified your connectors are good.
