Quoted from Nintendork:

one of the coils looks a little black. Could this be a sign to change coils?

Consult your schematic. What coil is supposed to be there? Check at https://www.flippers.com/coil-resistance.html and see if the resistance you measure is close to the resistance it's supposed to be.

Quoted from Nintendork:

The other question is what setting to put this multi meter on to check polarity and what the rate should be around on the meter?

Schematic again but 200 AC is most likely the right range (the red numbers at the upper right). http://www.pinrepair.com/em/index3.htm#low

Quoted from Nintendork:

I am just wondering how to measure it on the meter

Section 8.3: https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1113859/Sperry-Instruments-Dm-350a.html?page=6#manual
You'll need to know what coil you're measuring and what the resistance of that coil should be.
You'll find the information about what coil it should be on your schematics (or manual, if it has one) and you'll (probably) find the expected measurement at the link in post 2. If it's not there post what coil you have and someone will look it up for you.

How is that done exactly? Gaping and examining the switches?

Quoted from Nintendork:

where would I find the schematics online

You won't find them online. Unlike every other manufacturer, Gottlieb claims copyright on their schematics. This means generally it's harder to get assistance with them because almost no one has documentation.
You can buy a copy from http://pbresource.com/mansch.html
