Bally Star Trek Flipper Issue - Help a noob for Christmas!

I am attempting to fix this problem myself, as I own three pins and it's time to learn repair on my own. Since I am a beginner with pin repair, please go slow and don't use big words :)

The problem is with the left flipper. It won't work when I press the button. I have found that it does work when I simultaneously press the right flipper. It will also work if i press that flipper when the ball is in contact with some other target on the game. Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
 
Hey!

I have a Bally Trek too:)

BEAUTIFUL machine, I love it. I've had problems with the flippers too!!

Well, I'm going to say the obvious...have you cleaned the leaf switches the
buttons press on the inside of the cabinet? This really corrected a lot of problems
for me...also clean the EOS switches!

I'll have to look when I get home, but maybe I changed the button-switches...

For fun, you can see my Star Trek here: http://www.1080p.dk/startrek.html
 
I haven't cleaned them yet, but didn't think the problem would be as simple as that. I'll do that and see if it helps. Thanks!

Any other suggestions?
