I was recently working my way through the solenoid tests and found that 05 23 and 05 25 where not flashing the lighting flashers. I believe the only light that lights up of the 5 flashers in this photo is the one on the right when 05 26 is on (in the photo it looks like the second is on, but i believe thats the light behind it). Any suggestions on how to trouble shoot this? I did change the bulbs.

Thanks for checking it out. I see how the photo looks like that, but it does not look like it came from there in person. Hmm. I think it must be to the right side of the switch immediately to its left?
Deleted... It seems there is no way to delete a post?
Sorry, learning, long time stalker, few times poster

Still trying to learn about how to address this issue with my lightning lighting. I see in the Solenoid table the following details for rows 23 and 25. Any suggestions on where to start next or resources to learn how to trouble shoot this? I have reseated the cables and replaced the bulbs.

Quoted from dmacy:Here's a few shots of my old one and another I did that shows the wiring in a little better detail. I don't have mine or would get you better pics.

Thank you Grumpy, dmacy and mageek. The yellow line does go from the switch (NE) to its left to the next switch (NW) which does connect to a green/blue wire. Ill go ahead and give it a shot tonight connecting it to the right side of the NE switch. Appreciate the details.

During game play it appears the two lights on the right function correctly and provide lightning at different times with the lower row of general illumination turning off and on. I dont believe any of the other three lights on the center and left ever light. I assume they should be lighting up when the other two are.
Quoted from Mageek:You should start at the light board, sometimes the sockets lose good contact with the board. Bend the little tabs up and swap the sockets from the left side to the right and test. Reflow the solder at the header pins and where the lamp sockets make contact with the board, and re-pin or replace the connector. Then start working back to the source which is the sound overlay board J4.
Thank you. You helped me to the wires shortly before the sound overlay board where it looks like some sort of "repair" was made previously. Next time I have more than a few minutes I will start there.
