Got my XMLE out of storage, fired her up and in switch coil test noticed that the blue GI lights are all out. I hear the 'click' sound when testing in COil test (#46 I believe) but no blue lights.

I have power coming out of the 8 power driver aux board (there is a dc reading for the left side pins) but no blue lights.

Any help on where to start looking?

Found the issue in case anyone ever has this problem:

The Blue Gi lights are from the orange-blue line. This connects to one of the connectors of one of the relays. A wire from that relay was barely soldered on and came loose. That was the issue.Just resoldered. Blue lights back on again.

Thanks. Ya i just realized most of my limited electrical/board troubleshooting is done on wms/bally games, i think ive only dealt with mechanical issues with modern sterns.

Looking at the boards and electrical in the newer stern manuals was really different to me than wms manuals so kinda threw me off.

I guess this also ended up being a mechanical issue afterall but finding where to start was the hard part!
