Have gapped that switch, so the 3 blades are independent of each other.

When like that, the machine will not turn on (ie: no lights or anything) but when i briefly touch either of the 2 shorter blades to the longest one the machine turns on.

Again, when the ball trough switch is closed, the score motor runs continually, but can't start a game.

Will wait till Kraig gets here at lunch time and try reconnecting the missing wire to the relay on the coin chute and see if that does anything.

OK - So make sure you have credits up on the credit unit. Switch on - you should at least see the "tilt" light on ? Press the Start switch and it should start your game.

The motor running continuously means that there is a part of the "start sequence" that is not completed. Are there any relays or coils "buzzing" louder than others ?

The coil on the front door is the "coin lock out" - won't make a difference. These are often disabled as they make a "buzzing" sound when on that distracts players.
