Looking at the schematic....I see target switches for their respective relays as well as for points. So I suspect the originals have two separate switch contacts.
Can you show a photo of the switch blades on the original?

You need two separate circuits which the "double make switch" Mark has shown does. Don't think your new switch accomplishes that.
Replacing the target face should be enough, there's even a whole "Vid's Guide" on how to do it! https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/replacing-stand-up-target-faces-vids-guide
You might also be able to use the blade with the target on your old switch stack. You can drill out the rivets and use machine screws instead if you don't have the gear to replace the rivets.
