Hi all,
So bit of a funny one this one, went to look at a SS near me owned by @Justin as the flipper wasn't working, before attending I could see that the EOS on the left flipper had a wire loose so should be an easy fix. Got there, soldered back on and flipper was still dead.
Went into backbox and F116 had blown through, so I changed this out.
Switched back on, and pressed button, flipper gets up, but just completely locks on, taking out the fuse (that to me suggests it wasn't switching to EOS)
First off I took off the coil, and swapped the diodes for new, both of them, reattached the coil and re-tested. Same again, blew out the fuse.
Grounded out the meter and tested pins on J120 through 9,7,3,1 all read the same, can't remember what they tested out at with the game on, but there was no variance, the same for J119, can't remember the reading but no spiking.
Reseated all connectors.
Switch tested opto board, all good. Switch tested EOS by manually pulling up and that also switches in and out all good.
So a little stumped, the only other thing I am thinking is could D22 and D20?
Any help would be appreciated, I am wanting to go back and help get this fixed to be honest.
