I looked at switch 30 last night - its the one that shows up as a problem in the switch test. It looks good from a physical point of view, I didn't reflow the wires but the contacts look good, its open and not touching, closing when i push on it.

I am wondering if the tiny diode or capacitor on the switch could be bad. Does anyone know what parts they are? I can't find them in the manual at all. it just says "all switch assemblies consist of leaf springs, contacts, separators, plastic tubing and screws to hold them to the mounting surface."

Haha. I snipped the diode off but now the switch doesn’t work at all. My guess is that one of the connectors I replaced was done poorly - it seems like 99% of the problems are connector-related. I need to do some work with the meter but I’ve been working on my new rescue 911 instead (https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/rescuing-a-rescue-911)

In re-checking out the globetrotter I realized how far I have come. It looks more like a “before” pin than an “after” pin. It’s going back into the workroom after I get my target pool finished. Then perhaps I can really say the slowest restore is done
