Jungle Lord - Ball wont pop into plunger area
ChadTower:
Did you check the interboard connector as jim suggested? If that is crappy you'll be chasing issues forever. That's not an optional fix on a Sys7. It's one of the very first things that needs to be done.

Did then solenoid try to kick the ball? If not check the switches. If the switches work check the solenoid. A jumper wire from the driver transistor collector to ground will check the coil.
--- Quote ---... the plunger area is empty, there is a ball in the recessed area directly beside it, and the other ball is sitting behind that. I gather that the game thinks there is a ball in play, but even if I take the ball out and start, it wont pop the next ball into the plunger area after the current one drains.

Make sure all the balls are in the trough and one isn't stuck in the playfield.
As for the other topics raised in this thread...
A 6 inch bastard file can be used to un-mushroom the plunger and coil stops.
A weak flipper usually only means that only the holding coil is working.
After changing the batteries the pinball boots into audit mode. Cycle through the audit mode and the pinball will boot normally.
