So I went over to work on a Lady Luck 1986 pin and turns out the guy didn't try flipping the switch, so it came on but the kicker wouldn't kick the balls so I had to do so manually, the third flipper wouldn't move and the pop bumpers/slingshots wouldn't do anything either, though they all added score. I went into the test mode and it said a switch was stuck...Alright so I found it and laid the playfield back into place to check the manual, when I did so the pin just shut off and wouldn't turn back on.
Any ideas?

If none of the Bumpers etc, are going off, it sounds fuse related. And since the game has now died, check all fuses in the back box with a meter, and make sure to take them out to test them. When lowering the playfield back in, there may be a chance something shorted. (I've had that happen before)

After checking online before you posted I realized the bumpers etc was fuse related, I'll check all the fuses on there but also what may have shorted? Could it have been dust or something?
 
Check the main fuse and meter the main AC if you get nothing at all when you turn the game on.

Exactly. Even if all of the boards are dead, you should get GI lighting because it comes directly off of the main transformer. Your problem is on the power board in the bottom of the cabinet. Maybe something fell onto the board when you had the playfield up, and caused a short.
