Hi everyone!

ive recently acquired a 1950 gottlieb "select a card".....no manuals appear to be available and my flipper coils are all burnt up. anyone have any tricks for identifying ancient coils-turned crispy critters?

ironically, the flippers actually still work, but theyre basically fart-powered at this point and need replaced badly.

im not sure if maybe someone can tell me what might have gone into a similar wood rail pin from gottlieb in the era? maybe?

any help or suggestions are absolutely welcome and appreciated. thanks everyone!!

i have no schematic, so looking at the schematic is not possible.

EOS switches are definitely misadjusted, but im telling you these things are acting like theyve dropped half the winds in both coils in each flipper. ill fiddle around a bit more, maybe take some resistances across the coil to see if theyre at least close.
