Trying to troubleshoot a friend of mine's Whitewater. Every once in a while, when you hit the green stand-ups in the center the game crashes. See the video below. Any ideas?

Looks like a 5V reset.
Couple of questions: does the same switch always cause reset?
Are there any “on” switches that shouldn’t be in the matrix diagnostic screen?
Pretty sure it's always the right of the two green stand-ups. Doesn't happen every time though. Very sporadic.
I'm kind of a newbie, but it looks like it's the "light lock right" switch and it doesn't look on in the diag best I can tell.
What ROM version are you running? There's a version that causes this. LH5 is the ROM version.

It says rev L-5 on the service menu. Is that what you mean? Again, newbie. Sorry about that and thanks for the help!
Be sure your stand up targets are wired right. White wire and black end of a wire to one lug, green wire to one lug, silver band end of diode to a lug. Compare all the stand up targets on the playfield, they are all wired the same. Only difference is the stripes on the white or green wires will be different.
Whitewater is sensitive to the switches being wired right and can reset if not.
LTG : )
Quoted from Joniano:LTG, it was definitely wired reverse from the rest. Just rewired it. Fingers crossed!!!
LTG has been saving the day for as long as I can remember!
Well, consider this another day officially saved! Played a bunch more, slamming on that stand up with no resets. Thanks a million LTG!!
I had this exact issue about 10 years ago, and of course Lloyd saved me then. What would we do without him?

So cool. How good does it feel everytime you hit that target and don't have to flinch ?!
