Title: TFTTC left flipper cutting out randomly
Post by: renodakota on July 22, 2012, 10:47:20 am

I can not figure this out,
I've checked my fuses and connections. My machine's left flipper randomly decides not to fire.
Mostly I have noticed it while the right flipper is up.
Is the flipper getting close to fried?
Any advice?
Thanks guys

Dirty or mis-adjusted EOS switch?

Is the coil's magnet wire broken right at the coil lug making intermiitent contact?

I resoldered the coil wires and cleaned off my switch and it works full time again.

This is my first pin so I'm learning as I go sorry for any future stupid questions.
I need to remember to look around some more before I get pissed I can't play,
I bought it to learn not just to play with when I'm drunk.
Does anyone have a good maintenance plan for DE machines?
Thanks again guys
