Board LED lighting with metal ball means the detector is working OK. But there might be a bad connection in the cable. Check that all pins on the board J1 connector are well soldered, and the cable side connector is clean. If the cable feels loose, replace connector pins.

OK. Not a connector problem then.

Is your menu setting A2.26 "No powerball" set to "NO"? And is the slot machine eddy sensor also working correctly?

If you install a new ROM version, you will lose the high scores anyway, so maybe you could try resetting to factory settings with the L-4.
