Hello!
So I started with a 100% working Black Knight. Took one full pf out and put another full pf in. Everything is working on the new pf except the upper flippers.
All parts of both upper flipper assemblies- except coils- are brand new. The upper flippers/mechs move freely and feel snappy when moved by hand- no obvious binding happening. Cabinet switches are also new (and worked perfectly with 1st pf). Both lower flippers are working great, feel strong.
When I'm in switch test and press the flipper buttons- the lower flippers flip normal, but the upper flippers just sit there. If I manually help them- like physically hold the upper flipper bat halfway- then I can feel/hear the coil buzzing TRYING to complete the flip, but doesn't seem to actually have enough power to do anything.
Having the 1st pf right next to me to compare- everything looks exactly the same. No obvious mistake in wiring/assembly. Upper flippers on the first pf worked perfectly.
I initially thought maybe it was something mechanical, but seems odd that BOTH upper flippers basically have the same issue. So- what is the common denominator I am not thinking of here..... Tried digging through forums for ideas but coming up empty. Attaching a quick pic for reference but can take more specific ones if needed.
Appreciate any ideas- thanks!
Dan
