Hoping someone can please help.

Right flipper EOS stuck closed error code showing.

Switch not stuck on switch edge test. All switches appear to test ok during switch test. Including both EOS when manually moving flipper to activate them.

Continuity from orange ground wire on left EOS switch back to J208-14

No continuity from orange ground wire on right EOS switch back to J208-14 (assuming this is my problem)

Can someone please tell me, am I missing something simple here? How are the orange EOS ground wires connected from the J208-14 connector back to the EOS switches? I’m getting continuity on the left side orange EOS wire to the connector, but not the right side orange EOS wire, so just trying to figure out where the break or issue is.

THANK YOU 🙏🏼D1E09440-46D3-424F-8428-AB04FA72CEE6.jpeg
 
The orange wires just loop round the eos switches so it should just run left to right
Hey Chris. Yes, this is what I thought should happen, but couldn’t figure out why it wasn’t wired up that way. A couple of hrs ago, I traced the right side orange wire all the way back through the harness and found it pass the left flipper, and was soldered to a GI lamp holder!
It was literally under my nose the whole time but didn’t spot it until I followed the wire all the way back.
I clipped the orange wire off the lamp and checked continuity back to the right EOS and it’s the same wire. So looks like I just need to reattach the wire to the left EOS now so it’s daisy chained and connected back to the J208 plug 😎
