If the Bank Start relay (SB) doesn't activate when you push the Replay Button, Inspect and diagnose this circuit with Alligator clip jumper wires. Starting with the 3 circled switches.

Be careful because this circuit runs on 120 volts
I had a similar problem w my NS a few weeks ago..I could start a game when I manually reset the bank..the furthest one from you when you are standing in front of it..there’s a start relay on that bank, and if the end of stroke isn’t gapped properly, the game won’t start..perhaps check that relay..
Quoted from jrpinball:Ach du lieber
That made me laugh, and I don't even know German! But I understood and agreed
Quoted from jrpinball:When you say "set for free play" what do you mean?
Like how is it set for free play?
by defeating the open contact on the credit wheel when its at zero, either mangling the contacts or alligator jumper

Yeah, well. There's other ways as well. That's what I'm trying to get at.

You assume too much.
