Chicago Coin 1969 "Speedway" bell question

Does anyone know what was required to make it ring? When I block out crash contacts can run the score over 1000. I thought that it was tied to score. Have power to the connection but jumper wire to the coil gets no response. Bad coil or missing the obvious?

Thanks for the great resource!!

No response whatsoever from the coil? Is it burned? Check it with the 'ohm' setting on your multimeter, it may be a shorted. Also, do the moving parts move freely?
 
Bell Reply & Start Up Question

Been working on this game myself it should activate thru the score relay contacts Y-W & Green might check to see that those contacts are clean.
Having issues myself with start up, I can get the game to play fine when manually pressing in the extended play, but when a credit is added the credit light turns on but nothing happens when the button is pressed. Haven't dove far enough into troubleshooting yet to see where I'm loosing a completed circuit to the reset relay but figured if someone has had this issue themselves might be able to give me a heads up on what to look for.
 
Found the start up problem pitted contacts making a bad connection for the 0 positions. I had to add solder to the contact points then it started up fine. I bet the same issue is on the bell contacts my bell is very intermittent haven't checked them but will probbably go over them also a bit with some solder.
