Try closing the door, adding a credit, and then try to fire it up. Don't know if those had a high voltage lock out on them or not. It is possible that the start button isn't making contact or a wire is broken off so check this first. Also could be a tilt issue.... Look at the backglass and make sure the tilt bulb isn't lit. You're not missing any rooms or pieces as far as I can tell as was stated earlier.

After watching that again: Are you sure you're adding credits to the game? Try manually hitting the coin shoot switches to make sure its not a coin issue since it looks like you're dropping coins in.

When you hit the credit switch does the game make a sound or add a credit to the display in the head?? I think it should.

That game should have 3-4 tilts on it: Coin door, tilt bob *left side front of cab inside*, rolling tilt *right above tilt bob*, and 1/2 on the playfield itself. As far as I know all of them should be open and if one is closed then that could be your issue as it won't allow the game to start back up.

Ok when you flip the coin switch does the game make a sound or add a credit to the display? If not then try the other switch on the coin door *should be two*...

If one of them adds credit then hit the start button. If the game doesn't start then make sure the switch is making contact *you can do this visually and don't need to meter it*.

That switch that you "close" that is starting the game is for your start button. Mount that behind it like it should be and you will be good to go.

Glad I could help you get this thing going again.

Diode: Look at the numbers on the diode and replace it with the same... should be like an 1N4004 or 1N4007 I do believe, but could be wrong.
