Lighted flippers in!

Anyone ever had their game play normally, but the display just says "Stern Pinball" the whole time? Weird.

Need some help identifying where a wire goes. I was getting a garage kicker coil malfunction, so under the playfield I see this loose orange/white wire. Can anyone tell me where it goes? I am sure it has something to do with it. Thanks!

Update. After tracing the orange/white wire back to the J8 on the backbox I also see a stray brown/blue wire. It looks like it came out of the idc connector?

Yeah it is brown blue. You can see it in the first pic. The second is with a flash so it makes it whiter. I downloaded the manual and am looking through the 255 pages. Hahaha. I just hoped someone had a pic of theirs or had gone through this before to offer insight.

I am seeing that. Looks like that orange/white wire that isn’t connected on the other end is in it’s slot on the connector. I’m thinking someone just stuck a random color wire in there and connected them on the other end?

Thanks guys. Will connect them and see

Update…. So I joined the orange wire to the brown/blue and nothing happened. Then I unhooked them and I hooked the orange/white wire to the coil and presto, it worked. Then as I stood there going over “why” I figured a previous owner probably had an issue with this brown/blue wire at some point and just bypassed it. The orange/white wire must have come off the coil and that is what started the whole process. It is fixed now and working perfectly….thanks for everyone’s help and hopefully this will help someone in the future.
