Hi I was wondering if this problem was resolved. I have the same exact problem except after replacing Q46 and the diode and the coil (replaced with manual specified since a different one was being used on the mini kicker) the transistor gets stuck after a few minutes of normal function and needs to be replaced again and will blow fuse after a moment. Thanks!

Just wanted to update for posterity, I found the problem soon after posting here. The mini kicker solenoid was assembled upside down. The coil would get shorted out when hitting the post of the Battlefield when playing at some point. Everything works now, learned a lot tracking down these problems so it is all good. thx
