    It has to be the switch/switches that touch the witch plate. If it drops when you manually hit the relay. And if it goes up and everything thing else is working. Its not detecting the top position.
    And would probably also be why the gun doest hit it.

    White wire continuity on the witch board plug. For top position.
    And the wiper switch has continuity. At all positions.
    Because when it hits the top it should drop. Its just a top limit switch to engage the drop relay

    Do both sides of the wiper switch touch the plate? And do they complete the circuit?

    OP
    Quoted from Ciro74:Actually, the witch does not drop when the witch down relay is manually activated. It drops when shot normally except at the top. The dance unit properly is triggering the left/right up/ down relays but again the witch doesn’t go down from this. Both sides of the wiper do touch well on the witch vertical pcb and I’ve cleaned it well, not sure about circuit completion though, what’s the best way to test that at the top limit.

    Just follow the wires and and check continuity and switch closure continuity. Check the switches on the drop relay switch stack.
