Quoted from metalkatt:

Issues 3 and 5 are solved.

What were the fixes?

Any other issues fixed so far?

Quoted from metalkatt:

The coil is new. PPB is new, aftermarket. Running a Rottendog MPU, XPIN Power board.

Why all these new boards? Who made the PPB board?

Quoted from metalkatt:

Yeah, going to do some more voltage checks on the wires going to the champagne launcher and compare it to the other coils in the group. I'm not sure whether the power line goes to the banded side of the coil. My coil is new as I rebuilt that too.

What is your result? More importantly, what ohm reading did you get on the champagne launcher with power off? If there is a diode on this coil, make sure it is not broken.

Can you post a picture of the champagne coil with the wiring attached? I hope the direction of the diode is visible in the picture as well.

Quoted from metalkatt:

When I hold down the right flipper button and the ball hits the upper right pop bumper, it triggers the VUK to activate(no ball in the VUK), which causes the game to shoot out another ball into the launch ball area, thinking there was a ball launched from the VUK into the grotto holding area, so while the one ball is in play, there is another ball waiting to be shot into the playfield. It's back to the drawing board again...maybe someone might have had a issue similar?

Sounds like you may have a diode that is shorting against metal causing the switch matrix issues. Also, It seems possible that your pop bumper switches are too close that tell the machine to fire the coil.

Just checking on your progress.

Can you report the last repaired issues so it can help others?
