Hi Portraitman2
great - You could solve the problem with help of other pinsiders.
I do +/- like to do some research work (schematics / my pin) - but then realising "within the time I was doing my work: problem has been solved - my stuff is obsolete" --- this realising I do not like. So I write this post - lets use it as "some theory".
HowardR shows in post-3 the wiring to the coil on No-Match-Unit-Step-Up (and the unit has mounted THE BELL for getting ONEs-Points). The switch may be maladjusted - might be dirty / oxidated - sometimes making contact - sometimes NOT making contact. The wires in the circuitry may have broken-off a solder-lug - sometimes staying in place - then a bit of shaking the pin - broken-off end moves away a bit - sometimes connection - sometimes NO connection.
See the first JPG - "My E is the Game-Over-Relay" - from left to right (in the JPG) are switches SW-GO-1, SW-GO-2, SW-GO-3, -4, -5, -6. The first three switches are three-bladed Make-and-Brake-Switches. The schematics shows these switches at schematics-G-19, F-10, A-7. The colors of wires in my Shangri La have faded - hard to go by the colors of the wires.
See the second JPG --- on the Lights-Section one of these Make-and-Brake-Switches on the Game-Over-Relay --- when I cheat on the switch - making permanent connection "all three blades have connection": I see the Number-Match-Lights changing when I play a ball - the Number-Match-Lights are controlled by the Number-Match-Unit AND THE BELL is mounted on the Number-Match-Unit. So I can test the functionality "THE BELL" by making the No-Match-Lights light-up during play - and I see the No-Match-Lights changing - telling me about the functioning of the Unit.
The colors of wires in my Shangri La have faded - hard to go by the colors of the wires - I sneaked-in a stripe of paper into one half of one of the three-bladed-Make-and-Brake-Switches - started a game - played a bit - learning "what is no longer working due to the sneaked-in stripe of paper --- I used the stripe of paper on several halfs on these Make-and-Brake-Switches ---
I learned: IN MY Shangri La the leftmost of the switches on the Game-Over-Relay is the Switch shown in the schematics at A-7 - controlling the lights --- I took an Jumper-Wire and clipped-on at first-blade and-at third-blade (((the middle, second blade always is connected to either first or third blade))) With the Jumper-Wire clipped-on I made the lights to always be lighted --- and I could check the functioning of the No-Match-Unit.
