OP
Quoted from Pintor:

All contacts have been burnished, relay leafs adjusted, all steppers and score reels were disassembled and cleaned

Sorry but that was a mistake. This forum is full of posts from people who tried shotgun cleaning & adjustments, and caused more problems than they were originally trying to solve.
What to do instead: Slowly and carefully diagnose one problem at a time and then fix only that.

MarkG is right. Check that circuit with Alligator clip jumper wires.

Hi Jukester

Welcome to pinside!

Can you have Pintor stop posting endless pictures? They don't add anything to our understanding of what's going on and just make it slower to find relevant posts.

Meanwhile, if the Ball Release coil doesn't activate when the Outhole relay is activated, inspect and diagnose this circuit with Alligator clip jumper wires.
