Game goes into play whether test mode dip is still on or off. Suspect the problem is some kind of input (service mode maybe?) which is being held, and as such other keys are seen as a combination to exit again. I can kind of replicate the problem by holding B down on the PCB and trying to use A for next screen. Would you like me to push a code commit with this extra information so it can be ignored there rather than tracked here?

It shouldn't go as far as the colour display on the grid, the PCB behaves like this:

plain grid -> grid + colours -> input test

to leave test mode press A+B or C+D+E+F+G, possibly other combinations. Game goes into play whether test mode dip is still on or off.

Suspect the problem is some kind of input (service mode maybe?) which is being held, and as such other keys are seen as a combination to exit again. I can kind of replicate the problem by holding B down on the PCB and trying to use A for next screen.
