The left flipper on my Firepower is not working. I got the DMM out and tested the voltage. The left flipper coil reads 15 VDC while the right flipper coil reads 25 VDC. Does that mean I should replace the coil?
 
You could swap left and right coils and see. But it sounds like your voltage is too low going to that coil.

Check flipper button points and EOS points - they should be filed smooth and clean. The EOS points be sure they have plenty of tension holding them closed, and they tend to limit current before one of them breaks off.

LTG : )
 
your game has a coil test.....try using it to check your flipper issue. If you have a manual it will show you how to run the coil test...if you don't have the manual you can download it at the internet pinball website and also read up on your game as well.
