Weird thing tonight, I played a few games on my Paragon and noticed all three lights in the coin weren't working, they were working fine when I started playing. Àll other lights are working and the game plays normally otherwise I tried switching out the LEDs, to different LEDs as well incandescents and they still didnt work. Any ideas where to start?

Reseat the coin door molex plug, if that doesn't work check and make sure you have continuity from the common green wire on the sockets to the plug

Re-seating the connectors on the molex plug for the coin door didn't do anything. Can you walk me through how to check continuity on the common green wire?

Grab a multimeter and set it to continuity or ohm check. One lead on the green wire that's connected to the sockets, then the other lead on the green wire going into the molex plug. Continuity should beep or ohm check should show 0 ohm

I didn't get a reading the multimeter display stayed on 1 while checking both wires
