Hi im new to this site and know nothing about fixing arcade games. I picked up a midnight resistance arcade game and I have a couple of problems. First off, the coin op does not work. How can I wire it to set to free play? Also, in the manual it states that the test or service manual switch is suppose to be located by the coin counter along with the volume control but it is not. Any idea where I can look in the cabinent for the test/service button? If I can find the test or service button shouldnt I be able to adjust the settings in there to make the game free play? I have no idea like I said I know nothing about fixing arcade games. Thanks for your help!

Very common to buy a game someone has stripped or mutilated in one way or another.
Free play is not a factory option:

The easiest route is to simply hook up a momentary switch/button up to the wires of one of the coin mechs and place the button in the coin return. However you said they don;t work either right? Disconnect the two wires from one of the coin mechs and then touch them together. If the game doesn't coin up (if you have two coin mechs try both) it's most likely you have a wiring issue.
