pinball turns on, doesn't start

When I replaced the fuses, bammo the lights come on and stuff starts to move inside.  However, it doesn't want to start a game.  There's a motorized spindle under the playfield right in the middle that seems to spin forever, as if it can't clear something out, so I'm not sure what could be wrong (perhaps a relay stuck open?)  Of course after bumping the coin door a few times, and messing with the position of the scoreboard, it suddenly starting working!  Of course, it only worked once, but man getting it working felt so good.  I did notice the left flipper had issues flipping everytime (at least when the zipper flippers came together).  Also there seems to be a missing wall in part of the playfield because the ball got stuck a couple times.
