Shortrackskater and I are both in “squirrel “ mode!
Let us see more.

Important lighting information, the fluorescent LED has two makes, one needs a transformer to work, the other just plugs in without the transformer and starter.

Thank you very much for your help !!!!

In my opinion, most EM issues cost nearly nothing to fix... it's a matter of proper troubleshooting; checking wiring, contacts, relays, solenoids, etc. I'm not speaking for myself! I struggle with these but you've already had enough similar circuitry experience to do this.
I've found slot stands on Craigslist at times. The easiest thing is just repurpose a heavy duty night stand or wooden file stand. If you search "slot stands" on the entire forum, you'll get some great ideas.
Most importantly, bolt that slot down on the cabinet! 
As for the hopper, best thing is post a WTB in the Newlifegames Classifieds. They're on eBay occasionally but you'll need to figure out the model number you need. Any of those three members I mentioned will likely know. Actually, the model # should be in the manuals Badbaud referred you to.
Member wolftalk may chime in soon. He's got an extensive amount of documentation for the Bally EM as well.

Additionally.. I see no movement from the odds unit (which i believe is the multiplier unit?)
