    The flipper coils on Old Chicago have five wires going to them. Three to one lug, one to the center lug, and one to the other side.

    Now, here is the schematic.
    One connection to the flipper button. One to the EOS switch and one that goes to the unlabeled coil at the top.

    So, that’s three, except I’m guessing those are both inside the flipper coil itself, so really that’s only two.

    The line going up from the unlabeled coil meets a red wire -r- that goes to the 1000 point relay off to the right and to the bridge rectifier off to the left.

    Where on the schematic are my five wires?

    Steve,

    Your animations & explanations have been very helpful to me! Thank you.

    The real eye opener for me this time around is @slochar's reminder that the schematic is not a wiring diagram. Good lesson to learn, which I understood at some level, but not totally.
