Does anyone have a scan of the insert decals? I'd like to try to fix a few of them.

After putting my BOP back together that worked fine previously, the skill shot coil started smoking on the first launch. No fuse blew. The coil works fine in test with no smoke. I tried it a couple times after checking connections and it keeps smoking. The 24-900 coil measured 5.7 ohms.
I'm not sure how the gameplay with switch works different than test other than that first skill shot switch is bypassed.
Any idea's where to start looking? Transistor and diode on the board?
Quoted from Marco1973:Hi KenM.
Left and right flippers has the same coil. So if you want you can try changing them testing in this way if the coil itself could be the problem.
In test mode flippers are receiving electricity only if you test them; during play electricity Is always ready, and goes trough when you push the flipper buttons.
I had a simular problem years ago and the problem was a shortcut. I would look if the diodes are ok too.
Its not the flipper coil. Its coil #5 that sends the ball in to the pops after the skill shot. I can check the orientation but i never touched that in the partial teardown.
Quoted from BriPin:Make sure you didn’t reinstall the coil so that the lugs are facing the playfield prop arm and shorting out against that. Ask me how I know.
I cant imagine its an orientation thing like this because it works fine in test with the playfield in the same spot.
Thanks, Marco. My coil is wired opposite, weird.
Embarrassingly enough, I think BriPin was right. It's possible that the coil was touching the prop bar after it would jump a little bit after firing. I don't understand why that didn't blow a fuse. I must have had the prop bar in the correct spot when i had it firing in test mode.
