Many thanks Rich!
It previously worked correctly, but rested for a bit. I thought I felt a little play with the record carrier in the opposite direction, so will get down to cleaning the pawls.
The record changer still looks clean and lubricated. Thanks again. Much appreciated. Saves me time.

Shankar -
Is this a machine that has previously worked correctly...then stopped; or never worked correctly since you have had it?
Not sure why the single credit switch would keep the solenoids energized unless they were pretty close in the first place.
As far as playing opposites....that sounds like a back stop pawl either misaligned or sticking. I made a video and demonstrated cleaning these. You want them clean and dry...no oil. Here's a link. https://youtu.be/mP0Pq83IEl4
Regardless of what I say in the video...the stop pawl on the left back....is for the lift arm on the left side...and right back pawl is for the right lift arm. I might have misstated this in the video. Hope it helps.
Pin canceling....seems the crank arm doesn't want to overtravel. Could be a sticky crank arm. I defer to the manual and others with wayyyyy more experience than me.
Good luck

Rich et al,
I played around with switches and relays. It will now load and play out records.
Selection Issues: When i use the slideswitch behind the keyboard assy, instead of getting a single credit, the credit lamp stays on for continuous credit.
When I select B3, I get M4 first, which is opposite and then B3. T5 => H6 (opposite) and then T5.
J8 => J8 J6 => J6
When I was pushing pins manually at the back, the crank did not always cancel the pin. After cancelling, instead of moving past the pin, the crank tip stayed behind the pin. So if the pin is not cancelled, it gets played again.
I am hesitant to start making adjustments as per the manual, given that it was properly adjusted before. Is there anything I can do to free up things manually? If i make adjustments and it starts to work, i think i will have to re-adjust again.
Grateful for advice.
Thank you
SHANKAR SINGH

Hi Rich,
No, I didn’t start any work as yet. Thanks a lot for your guidance. Much appreciated. I did not want to fiddle unnecessarily.
I will report back on the findings.

Shankar -
Were you ever able to get this issue sorted? Sounds like something in the trip circuit is intermittent. Checked the trip switch(behind the mech shroud) or maybe the start switch....I think it's one of the ones stacked on the crank arm. Also, possibly a misadjusted transfer switch?

Am looking at a WurliTzer 2900 that was not used for about a year.
When I make a selection, it loads and immediately unloads at several intervals before reaching the raised selector pin. Then it continues to load and unload without being able to press down and cancel the pin. At no time the record will play out.
Grateful for some guidance to start => will save me time to troubleshoot this from scratch.
Thank you
