Patience, not everyone is on the forum everyday. The few people that maybe have one of those may not have visited the forum recently. Not is not a real common machine.

My guess is that the one by the clock senses when the clock is in the end of cycle. The other one most likely senses when the vertical payout fingers have be released.

Presume wiring needs to differentiate between normal
Jackpot release mechanically via vertical fingers and an
electromechanical release of extra payout via from drawer
when jackpot winline coincides with the lght up sign on
Front casting also illuminated?
I'm not sure if light on front illuminates randomly or if
its every other pull?

Think monte carlo is same but just different graphics so
could widen search for help as presume internals same?

thanx for replies.

well i got very good pictures from the wiring from a monte carlo,i also thought it was the same wiring.
But its different'
i think the switch before the payout fingers give a sign to the money drawer.

and the part thats under the arm give the sign to the flickering lamp i guess. the only reference i have is this youtube movie:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kEjg1FBZsj8

i think that when you pull the arm, the "red" light should be flickering, those bulbs are wit a bi-metal in it,when you put power on it,it starts flickering
but what i dont know .do teh other lights have a function?

if the money drawer opens with a normal jackpot.and only the red light is flickering when you pull the arm,then its a piece of cake.

but thats too easy i think. i dont know.

but i dont know how the bulbs must behave.its frustrating.

but my first thought was that the wiring would be the same on a monte carlo. i know an owner so i took as many pictures i could take. the contacts are simply on other places,
im not really a professor on the electrical stuff either ,hahaha but if i know what to do. i manage...

thanx for replies!

I have a Sweepstakes with a flashing light and a switch that kicks out a coin(maybe on yours it opens the tray) upon a jackpot and light stays on. Let me know and I will send you all the pictures you want.
