Edit: reworded
I'm in the middle of a complete AFM re-wiring. I have left the cabinet wiring in tact but I'm in the process of re-wiring the playfield. While testing the playfield lamps, I noticed that the last lamp in a row will flash along with any lamp that I test within that row.
This is particularly interesting with Lamp 88 (start button). I can remove the wiring harness for the playfield wiring and experience the flashing lamp issue with lamp 88 when I test say lamp 28 or 38.
It seems like the entire column 8 is live, all the time.
If I test any of the column 8 lamps individually, they test fine.
