Suspect the wire gantry wire harness. All claw machines have a similar setup where the harness needs to bend to perform the X and Y axis. Where the harness bends causes the wires to fatigue over time.

To my knowledge LAI didn't offer complete gantry harnesses as a spare part so we made our own as a drop in replacement after finding the time it took to find and repair the broken wire took longer to track down, (as they are always intermittent breaks). and the resulting repair was always in the fatigue area of the harness.
