Hi all,

Got a weird issue I can't figure what the issue may be.

So on video mode (regardless of medium or hard mode) the flippers stop registering half way through the mode. Bullets remain but the flippers buttons stop shooting the wolves.

The flippers seem to work fine outside of the mode. No issues with holding flippers or general use during normal play. Any ideas appreciated.

Classic case of bad or dirty optos on the flipper buttons. Use a fine dry paintbrush to clean the slots and if that doesn't help try a bit of foam cleaner on the brush first
 
Yeah looks to be the Opto's if I smash hard on the left button they register. One opto on closer inspection is pretty buggered has some hits from the playfield I think? Looks very old. Been speaking to Phil at PB Heaven he said to send and he'll repair but I just want it up and running ASAP so i'll just buy new ones.

Will update when i've fitted them. I've also noticed the roll over switches aren't right. One looks to be in reverse?

Will show a picture later.
