Your picture shows A-1496, which is the correct Ball Return coil for Gottlieb Sure-Shot, so almost certainly, yes. The schematic lists the coil part numbers if you want an even more definitive answer.

It could be a mechanical problem or an electrical problem. Here are a couple ways to find out which.
- With the machine unplugged you should be able to reach in the coin door and sharply activate the ball return solenoid. If that moves the ball to the shooter lane, you probably have an electrical problem. If not you probably have a mechanical problem.
- You can activate the ball return solenoid with Alligator clip jumper wires. If that moves the ball to the shooter lane, you probably have an electrical problem. If not you probably have a mechanical problem.
To be more specific about how to do this I'll need to see a high quality scan of the schematic from e.g. Staples ($2) or Kinkos ($6)
