I have an Asteroids game. It works, but the player 1, and 2 buttons do not let you choose A player 1, or 2 player game. It goes right to A 1 player game, when coined up. It does not work unless it's coined up manually. Both buttons light up, and if you press either button, you hear the clicking of the counter.
I have replaced both buttons, and still have the same problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You sure nobody wired the start buttons to the coin switches? If you can press a start button and hear the coin counter click, then they're probably wired together.

Look at the wiring under the panel, and see if anyone added a jumper wire. Also, check the game board - a jumper wire between two pins on the edge connector would do the same thing.

Both P1 and P2 buttons should flash when set to free play, is that what you mean when both buttons are lit up?
