I cant seem to find what transistor drives the right flipper which currently energizes right when the game starts and stays stuck on. I seen this is somewhat of an issue on DE machines with the right flipper but I couldnt find anymore info. I swapped flipper boards but have the same problem. I dont know if the other one works properly or not, I just happened to find it in a box. Might not be the driver but I am unsure. This machine looked like shit and had all kinds of rigs jobs done to it. So it could be anything I guess.
 
Just check the big transistors on each board to see if one is bad.

You might disconnect the wires to the flipper button points too, to be sure that switch stack isn't shorted.

LTG :)

Will do. I checked those big ones and they seemed good. Maybe Ill recheck or just change them out anyway. Ill check the switch stack as well.

Did you check the flipper driver board under the playfield by the speaker?
