Check switches on the lock relay. Might be called hold relay.
Quoted from Deceptacon45:I do not have the schematics
pbresource.com or marcospecialties.com may have it. Did you try them?
Also, the other owners may have it.

There are schematics for Trade Winds and other games made around the same time on ipdb.org. The Trade Winds schematic shows that the backbox and playfield have separate fuses.

If your game has the same configuration you could have a bad 6V playfield fuse, or a bad fuse holder.

Hi, I checked the fuses and the fuse holder, seems good. Also looked at he switches on the lock relay, that also seems to check out. All the jones plugs have good continuity, no apparent loose connections there. Still no lights.
