Could be the microswitch under the apron messing up. Have something similar happening on my Xenon since the actuator is missing, doesn't put a ball in the shooter lane when the credit button is pressed. Though sometimes it would randomly work.

Microswitch in ball trough causing problems:

Disconnecting microswitch under apron for ball trough may have no ill-effect?:

When you hit the start button, does the game go out of attract mode? Player 1 display showing "00" for the score & it's just not putting the ball into the shooter lane? Or is it still cycling scores in attract mode?
