A guy at work has been wanting me to come over for a couple months to look at his Bally Gold Ball machine. The right flipper works fine, but the left flipper will only work when the right flipper is engaged.
I have not troubleshot many flipper issues and I checked the lugs for connection with the DMM. On the right coil I could get connectivity on the outside lugs, but on the left the rightmost lug with the thinnest wire would not beep when touched to any other lug. I cut the wire and stripped the resin off it and soldered it back on, but had no luck. I replaced the diodes on the coil and nothing. I am going to order a new coil, but was wondering if I am missing something else to check. I bet I should of cleaned the EOS switches.
Recap:
Right flipper works fine
Left flipper will only work when right flipper is engaged.
No continuity on the thinnest wire power lug to any other lug.
