Does your machine take coins?

OK.

Here is the deal.

The black wire going from your tilt ball switch to your tilt bob bracket does not belong. Remove it.

Those two looping wires get connected to the tilt bob bracket that the black wire is attached to.

This will bring your game back to specs.

Green/yellow wire is the ground. I'll get you pics of my King Pin in a bit.

Quoted from tscottn:

Ok based on yourr pics I set mine up exactly the same and it works as it should.. thank you.. however the red and the white/green/blue wire are just connected together and not connected to anything else, im guessing thats fine, and I wont worry about it.... also can you show me where your green wire gets grounded too? I had mine on the coin door is that where it goes?

Glad it works. My King Pin does not have ground wires maybe because it is an early model or because someone upgraded yours whether factory or personal. I will do a grounded system at a later date as I usually do. Gottlieb mounted grounded wires on their on/off base and coin door hinge on later models (green/yellow wires) as well as to the transformer base.
