I have an older gentleman that wants me to look at his Travel Time pinball machine and see if I can get it going for him before his family comes over for Christmas. He said everything was working fine and then the ball went in the spot between the flippers labeled START CLOCK. He said it scored but would not kick the ball out. He said it would kinda kick the ball a little but not enough to kick it out. My question is does anyone know what the coil for this spot is called. I am uploading a pic of the schematic showing the coils. There are three places that shoot the ball. What I call the saucer where it says 5000 when lit STOP CLOCK. Then where it delivers the ball to the shooter lane and finally the spot between the flippers that says START CLOCK. I could really use some help figuring out which coil is for each of these spots. To me the way the coils are labeled on the schematics is confusing. I need to know what the coil at START CLOCK is so I can study the circuit for it on the schematic. Also any suggestions of why the coil might not be kicking like it should would be welcomed. Thanks for reading.

Thanks for the replies. The picture is not of his actual machine. I just used the pic as a reference. I did not even notice it being a Segasa version. His is at his house and I am trying to get a good idea of the workings before I go over there. He said his is Williams. What is the difference in the machines by the different companies? Any mechanical differences? Are the schematics the same? I do not know if the eject hole works for sure or not yet. He just said it was all working fine then it went into the shooter hole and would not kick back out. So it could be the other 3 switches on the motor if I get over there and the eject hole does not work either. I will have to look at the schematic and see if I can figure out where those three switches are. Thanks

I think these are the three motor switches involved. Am I correct?
6-A eject and shooter relay lock
5-C pulses eject coil, shooter coil and replay U. Step up
Index-B pulses eject, shooter out hole and 2000 re.

Well he called me and said he took some canned air and blew out inside the machine some and it started working. One less thing I have to do before Christmas. Thanks all
