This from the manual:
"As directed by the game program, the Solenoid A/C Select Relay (solenoid 12) switches the solenoid B+ power between two power busses to permit actuating two groups of solenoids at the proper times.
In its de-energized state, the Relay connects the 'circuit A power' to 16 "controlled" and "switched" solenoids (identified in the table with no suffix letter or the letter A, after the solenoid number).
Individual solenoid operation then depends on the game program enabling the ground path for solenoid actuation via the driver transistor associated with each solenoid circuit.
For example, the game program can actuate the Outhole Kicker solenoid (sol. 01A), via the driver transistor Q33.
"When the game program determines that the Solenoid A/C Select Relay (sol. 12) must be energized, the relay connects 'circuit C power' to eight group C solenoids (01C through 08C).
Now, driver transistor Q33 can actuate the Bottom Right Flasher circuit (sol. 01C) which has two lamp circuits, one to the Insert Board and one to the playfield.
Using this "multiplexing" technique, the same driver transistor can control actuation of two separate solenoid circuits."
The A/C relay is exercised/checked in coil test (05 - solenoid test identifier.) With the auto up switch in the up position, the test will test each solenoid starting with 01A (Outhole Kicker) and then switch to the C side and test 01C (Bottom Right Flasher.) It will then go to solenoid 02A, then toggle the A/C relay to test 02C. The solenoid being tested and the side (A or C) will show on the display. While this test is running, as it switches from the A circuit to the C circuit, you should hear the A/C relay clicking in the backbox as it switches. If it doesn't switch, you will hear a solenoid like the Outhole Kicker fire twice in a row, once when the display says 01A and again when it says 01C.
When you get to Solenoid 12 in the test, this is a direct test of the A/C relay and when this test runs you should simply hear the click of the A/C relay itself with no other visual clue to the test.
If the relay does not click and you do not get flashers, you have to suspect either a fault with the driver transistor for the relay (Q8) on the CPU board or the relay itself, located on the aux power driver board, D-12247.
You should perform a check of Q8 on the CPU board. If it fails, your fault is likely there. If it tests good, chances are it's a relay problem.
Hope this helps.
