If this helps, in Sys 11 pins - I've found that if the spark is not mitigated - it has the habit of blowing fuses - so I'd take a look at the system in operation and see if you are getting sparks out of the EOS or cabinet switches....make sure the contacts are clean and gapped properly- I think this will resolve your issues.....
Quoted from TastyBlack:ROMs not sure, forget how to check. It's factory I assume as I have never changed them.
As far as my Left Flipper issue I'm still working on it. Still blowing fuses. I Checked for any spark from EOS, nothing. I have noticed when I replace the fuse and have it working for a bit, activating the upper left flipper it's making a loud buzzing sound. Right flipper does not do this.
Go ahead in the cabinet switch and bend the switch back such that the upper left won't trigger - thus disabling the upper left - and see if doing that keeps the fuse alive - if so - you can direct your energies to the upper left...

Quoted from MisterScappy:This really sounds like the primary coil isn't being switched out. When the flipper is fully thrown, the EOS switch should open 1/8", and only the hold coil should have power. The primary coil should only have power for a split second. If it stays powered, the fuse will blow.
So swap the coil (right for left) see if problem follows.....or merely replace it....

Your capacitor is wrong... It is not supposed to be in parallel with the coil,... It is supposed to be in series.... Rewire it like the others..... That should take care of the problem
Quoted from TastyBlack:The thing about that tho is it's been setup like that since I bought it over a year ago and it's been working fine all that time till just a couple weeks ago. It's more like something has gone bad or is shorting. I need to replace or swap the coil first I guess to eliminate that as being bad. Doing so tho should I get a correct EOS capacitor (yellow) as well since I'm not so sure about that orange one that's on there now
Correct - get the correct cap and coil OR swap left to right and you'll have your answer right away...
