Please forgive the newbieness of it all, but I just got a #TwilightZone machine, and the spiral magnets aren't functioning. I get error messages that say "Check Switch 81: Right Magnet" and "Check Switch 83: Left Magnet." Seems to me highly unlikely that both optos would malfunction simultaneously, so I suspect it might be a connector to a PCB somewhere. Is there such a thing, and if so, could someone tell me where I'll find it to try and reseat it properly? Thanks in advance.

Just noticed that it's not loading the gumball machine either, which probably also requires that same right opto, right?

Check the switch matrix in your manual, the column of the "8's", check for a broken wire. Maybe center lock or upper lock. A broken wire would kill any switch after it.
