Quoted from SkillshotExhibit:

I replaced the q66 transistor

You might have shorted out that transistor again,Your dealing with 3 things here
1.The transisitor
2.pre-drive transistor(smaller transistor)Locate them on the schematics in the manual
3.The coil that runs the magnet if a coil is there to the magnet(Coil rarely goes bad unless it is fried or shorted..Probably the burning smell your talking about
is it locking on/staying activated?did you test the coil for the correct ohms? it should be 2 ohms or higher.
Its always best to replace all 3 at one time.

Ok,Is that magnet run by a coil?

Quoted from arolden:

All magnets in WPC games are run by coils. The coil is the magnet.

If the magnet is no longer locked on then you have found the faulty component. Are you sure the plastic smell is not just lingering?

Thank you for reminding me,with all these new games i can't believe i forgot especially WPC that's my speciallty..
