Your Mars ME111 is powered by 12V.  Your X arcade is 5V.  Depending on what you connected to the X arcade controller you may have blown the inputs on j6.   You did not provide into on what you connected so I am only guessing at this point.

I just wired my coin door triggers to the buttons on my X-Arcade tank stick that simulate a coin drop.  So when you put in a coin, the circuit completes and it's the same as the button being pressed. Requires no power at all from the door.

After that I did also wire a hidden switch that breaks the button circuit so I can force use of the coin door only.

Very simple wiring.
