Coils don’t really “go bad”, barring mechanical damage. It’s typically gummed up mechs or switches like you concluded. Coils are just a length of wire. Just ohm out the coils and see if one is off of the others that are the same ones to see if one got melted or something. The LEDs make it pop. Very nice.
Awesome job Max! I really enjoyed part 1 and 2. Your perseverance with Catalina paid off. I have worked on Gottlieb, Williams and Bally electromechanical pinball machines but not a Chicago Coin yet. It is obvious that you have learned a lot along the way from the experience. I look forward watching more of your videos and hope that you make more pinball videos.
@@davidmorgan4122 Thanks! I’ve since uploaded part 3 as well as restorations on 3 other machines after I finished Catalina so feel free to check those out. More pinball videos are in the works!

Have you tried a dremel wire brush to polish switch contacts? Works really well.
