Did you check to make sure a pin from the connector hasn't pushed back out of the housing? I've never had one of these so I'm not exactly sure what you have there.

Hmmm...; I've never seen one either but, in electronics, when a machine runs for a little while after startup
and then craps out, it implies a component is failing after warming up. Your open-door-reset-close-door routine would not take very long, so I would predict the failure after that clear process occurs in a shorter time than the first, if a temp-sensitive component is the problem.  So,.....

1. Is that first failure consistent, XX plays or YY minutes after machine turn-on?
2. After you do the re-set, does the problem return in the same number of turns or minutes, or is it sooner?

Good to hear!
That's interesting that they designed it to flag you when bulb is out. That's kind of handy. That says a lot for designers of a game and it keeps the machines presentable in the casinos too I'd think.
I can remember MANY times playing S plus and S 2000's that had some lights out or no sound which was my pet peeve.
