Sorry, dmd isn't showing as an optional category for some reason
I have a question about the wiring of the ball upkick coil below the coffin.
Game is working, this just looks odd to me. There is a purple wire going to one side, and two red wires to the other. A diode connects the purple to the two red wires. It looks like the diode is in an unnatural position and barely reaches. I am wondering if perhaps the diode is only supposed to be attached to one of the red wires. Anyone have a pic of this? I have not gotten a manual yet.
Thanks for any help.IMG_20140111_101627_868.jpgIMG_20140111_101627_868.jpgIMG_20140111_101731_992.jpgIMG_20140111_101731_992.jpg

Everything looks electronically correct, though a better job cosmetically could have been done.

If everything is working fine, leave it be, it's correct.

the diode just needs to connect across the two terminals of the coil, doesn't matter how many wires are attatched. that is kinda messy but not wrong

but of course both red wires should be there dont mess with that

gotcha. just looked messy and as if the diode was in an unnatural position. Promise not to touch!
