I moved my working FS from one my locations back to my house to do some work on it. Hooked it up and it wont start a game? The game lights up and everything but wont start? I have it on freeplay as the previous owner took all the coin switches off the coin door(need 3 switches if anyone has them). Not sure what could have happened during the move to cause it to not work?

Bally and Stern games of that generation (with the original MPU) do not have a free game setting as such.
One usual way to achieve it is by programming the 1st free game credit at a very low score, so that you will
always win at least one free game per game, so that the credits number never gets to zero.

Start with:
- Make sure the number of Credits shown is 1 or higher (otherwise you need to carefully add credits
via the wires for the coin switch in the cash door);
- check the two small connectors J2 and J3 on the MPU and ensure they are properly and firmly connected/seated.

Good luck!
