Problem is playfield Control lamps work correctly sometimes, but majority of time control lamp lights are out.

GI lights work as they should.
Removed Jones connector clean male pins re-insert.

Replaced fuse holders, originals needed replacing anyway.
Check for bad solder joint on lamp PF bus wiring
When control lamps are working, playing a game they will go off.

Looking for ideas, not an EM guy

Check the game over relay for a normally closed switch with blue & white wires connected. Clean and inspect switch for a strong connection.

Right on the money.
Issue solved.
Thanks for your help directing, wire colors made it easier.
Greatly appreciated.

On EM pins should flippers make a buzzy sound?
Or is that an EOS adjustment

Buzzy or noisy flippers are usually a coil plunger stop problem. Machine gunning of the flipper is usually a end of stroke switch problem.

It’s a humming noise from flippers.
Flippers where rebuilt with all new components
Any thoughts?

Perfectly normal for an EM.
