1 Game-Specific Issues

1.1 World Cup Soccer locks on Right Sling and both Left and Right Kickout Holes at Power On

Problem

Upon power on, and with the coin door closed (defeating the high voltage interlock switch), the right slingshot as well as the left and right saucer kickout hole coils lock on.

Cause

The flash lamp drive connector that should be connected to J124 is instead connected to J128.

Discussion

Connecting the female plug to the wrong header pins is entirely possible since the connectors are the same width and are keyed identically. In World Cup Soccer (at least), the wire bundle is long enough to be connected (properly) to J124 or (improperly) to J128 or J132.
