The game keeps reporting switches 81 and 82 (the Frankenstein drop target bank) as broken. They register in the switch edges test but fail in the up/down bank test, and multiball starts without the bank dropping.
Game reports switches 81 and 82 broken but they work in switch test: connectors
Cause: Poor contact at the connectors and header for those switches.
Checks
- Run the bank up/down test and watch whether the switches change state as the bank moves.
- Check the switch wiring for stretched or broken common wires where the bank moves.
Fix
- Reseat the connectors for those switches and reflow the header pins on the board they plug into.
