Okay, I thought I had this beat last night, but I guess not. I am posting pictures of the ball trough area. I ran the switch edge test and it recognizes all the playfield switches I push. It recognizes Trough switch 1, but does not recognize 2, 3, 4, and the outhole. I had an issue with the green wire w/ the yellow stripe. Wasn't sure if it was an inline break or if they were connected to something. I repaired as an inline break. Had another issue when I started game and realized the white wire/gray stripe had come of or broke. I soldered the two as shown in the picture. Can anyone take a look and tell me if this is wired correctly.

I do have a voltmeter, but honestly not sure about setttings and what to test specifically to find why there is a break from ball trough 1 and back. Thanks.

LTG, sorry thought you had me through this and it seems I created another problem.

I did notice one of the legs is kind of loose on trough switch 2 (pictures 3 white switch in the middle). It is the bottom leg on the right side of switch (ground maybe?)

You see the yellow wire jumper going from switch to switch ?

Is the green wire/yellow stripe hooked to them in anyway ? It should be.

I though that might be an issue, thinking my inline break should have been connected to switch 2 maybe? It originates from #1

Do you know where in pic 3 the green/yellow wire would go? bottom leg that I said might be loose?

Think I know what you are saying, lemme try single leg on bottom w yellow wires

You mean the one with a yellow wire on it ? Yes it would go there.

Get that green wire yellow stripe hooked up to those switches and go into switch test and see if they work right or not. Then proceed from there. It won't hurt anything if wrong - just not work right.

Your first picture has a green wire yellow stripe hooked to something - what is it doing ?

It's trough switch one, bad picture. Pic 3 shows a better idea where that wire goes.

Looks like that green wire/yellow stripe goes to middle tab on one of the switches in the 3rd pic.

Get a picture similar to this angle if you can. This is my TAF which is similar.
