Ok im going to describe this as well as I can. I have a set of wires that goes to my coin door wll wrapped together. When they get to the coin door they split up. Some go to the actual coin switches and some go to the coin bulb sockets. Now going the opposite way in the first pic from the coin door the wrapped wires go to the long black connector on the jamma in the area shown in the jamma pic below with RED. My bulbs appear to be blown so I cant answer this question myself yet but.....
Can the Jamma be powering my 6.3v 150ma coin bulbs that are a push in and twist type bulb ?? Because there is a set of wires with 2 different connectors branching off from this main wrap going nowhere as seen in another pic

Kinda hard to tell from your pics but the power lines for the bulbs could have been branched off the +5 volt powering the board.
The bulbs aren't actually powered off the jamma board but they may be powered off the same 5 volts that feeds the board. Even though they are 6 volt bulbs, they'll still work well.
I don't know if you're saying you then have an unknown pair of wires or not? But the jamma standard did include a set of lockout coil wires to the coin door that may or may not have been present.
If you haven't already, look up the jamma pinout then you will have a much better idea of what's what on the connector.
