I am working on a Priemere Hollywood Heat. The right upper flipper is weak! I have disassembled it cleaned all moving parts & switch. I have installed 2 different new coils with the same result (A-17875). The flipper will actuate but weakly and slowly. There is a new sleeve and i have checked and adjusted it so it is not catching or dragging. The voltage checks out OK (25.0v the same as the other 3). The holding portion of the coil works fine but the power stroke is weak. This is the first priemere machine I have worked on so the tricks to these machines are unknown to me. Any advice is needed I am at a stand still.

Check to make sure you didn't connect the wires to the wrong leads, and have the low-voltage coil firing first instead of the other way around.
