First thing I wonder is it really registering those shots? Those shots have an entry switch to the ramp...so when it trips that switch it makes an enter noise...but it sounds like it's not tripping the completed ramp switch.

complete these ramps in test mode and make sure it's firing 2 switches, not just ramp entry. Or just switch test the insanity falls ramp you can reach easily

Oh...ha...ok lets talk audio. Really it should only say the name of the disaster if that disaster is a lit shot to advance the raft.
So see what it does when you advance rafts and one of those is an orange lit arrow.

EDIT: Now for the millions...it does not say millions on the DMD? just nothing? I mean that has to be a switch issue on that ramp?!?

I imagine they are all the same that way but Don;t quote me. But yes...you hit insanity falls when it's NOT lit and it will just show an animation of the raft goign down it or somthing.

Quoted from DB62:

The law
On the "MILLIONS SHOT" ... it does NOT do ANY animations or show ANYTHING at all, it just scores 300,000 points on my score at that time.

And your SURE that ramp is registering...BOTH switches?

BOTH

LH6 rom.

Quoted from DB62:

... plus I am not really skilled at ALL, in working on pins.
If I remove that long mountain on top, I will be able to see the switch easily? How will I know if it is bad? It does NOT show up defective in the test.

Well I think what arcade and I are getting at is it's a very simple chain of events we're working with.
Right inlane activates millions, you hit the shot and you get the millions, makes a sound effect and shows millions on DMD.
We know the inlane works because she says multi millions, but since it's not awarded when hitting the left ramp, basically the only thing left to be wrong is the switch not working correctly. That switch can be tricky I think...I'll try to post a pic when I get home

Just so we're on the same page, are you saying that switch works when you are in test mode, and you roll a ball up there?

Quoted from DB62:

The Law
I have not done that yet, I meant it showed no errors on start up. When I go in test mode, do I go to switch test and roll the ball up and see if it registers?

haha...Ok rookie; here's your first 2 lessons learned;
1. this game isn't gonna tell you jack shit! It's up to you to figure out what;s wrong.
2. Listen to what people tell you.

Arcade's info is going to come in handy in a minute....but we don;t need to take anyting off yet. You're going to enter the test menu/tests/#1 switch edge test
This is going to allow you to push the switches or roll the ball around and it will tell you what switches are being activated.
You're then going to take a ball, and roll it up the left ramp. Notice the game will beep once and tell you "left ramp entry(or)enter" happens. Thats the first switch at the base of the ramp. Notice how that's all it does? it SHOULD beep again right after that and say "Left ramp main" meaning the switch that arcade is showing us. That's going to the the problem most likely. 2 switches, one when yuo go in, one telling you it's been completed.

Quoted from Arcade:

The multi millions shot is almost certainly the little switch hanging down in the ramp at the very top of the game just to the left of Bigfoot .
