Hey folks,

Last week I did my first flipper rebuild on my DE Simpsons. I took lots of pics and made sure I soldered the wires to the new coil just as the old ones were done (keeping in mind the diode direction). When I turned on the game for the first time, I noticed that one of the lights on the speaker box was extremely bright. Specifically it was the "5X" light. The pop bumper lights were also VERY bright. I tried switching bulbs, but the problem persisted. Also, after I turned off the game the pop bumper lights glowed a good 3-5 seconds even with the power off. Any suggestions to fix this?
