Playfield re-installed and powered it up.....and to my very happy surprise, it worked

Ran a switch test only to find the idol exit switch was dead. Worked before, lucky enough I had a spare, and bingo all good.

Mode start bounce....bugger me, worked fantastic before and now the ball will only stay in the hole if I place it there delicately by hand. That means mini playfield is coming out

Please any suggestions on this one. 2 new flipper bats, left one staying locked into place, the right one slipping no matter how tight I do the clamp, any tighter an I'm going to break something. I even used very rough sand paper to score long ways on the flipper bat shaft, to rough up the surface. No go still slipping.

Overall I'm fairly happy with myself. IJ is looking pretty sweet - bling shots to come once I sort out these few issues.
