Williams The Getaway Pinball - all test buttons raise volume, won't coin up

voltages are 11.8, 4.94, and 19.68 off of the test points on the power board.

connections for the coin door are hooked up correctly. game is in attract mode. it will not coin up, and whatever 1 of the 4 coin door buttons you press, they all just raise the volume (per the DMD). although there is no sound for the game, but i'll troubleshoot that later.

machine is new to me. thanks for any guideance, ideas to check for, or is there a direct way to coin up the machine using the coin door pcb board?
 
Check the CPU for battery corrosion, it gets the diagnostic stuff first.

crap. there is corrosion. battery holder removed, and i did the vinegar clean/scrub before i started working on it, but i am still sitting with the same issues as when i picked this one up.
 
just to close this out, the wire harnesses had corrosion as well as the main board. a new MPU and cleaned harnesses got this game all sorted out. thanks for the help.
