Quoted from RC_like_the_cola:

Only since I don't see it mentioned, did you verify the sling switches aren't shorting somehow? Solder blob or something?

Would that even matter? The slings are special solenoids that are locking on when the game is turned on. There is a short to ground somewhere, likely a burnt up transistor or a coil lug shorting against something.
