I was putting away a metal box that goes inside my pin, right in front of the coin drop box, and doing so, it rubbed onto something that made a spark. My pin was on when I did this and now my left flipper is dead. I'm not seeing anything obvious and I don't know what else to do or look for. Anyone have any suggestions? My pin is a Rollergames if that helps and I appreciate any feedback. Thank you.

Purely a guess. Fried diode?

Check fuse F6 on the power driver board with a meter.

I am not sure about that game but some have the flippers fused individually. You may want to check your fuses.

Thanks for the fast response! Will check fuses and diode.

Looks like a blown fuse exactly on F6. This was probably a really noob question

Nope, no noob questions. We all learn by doing, then figuring out what we broke doing, then spending money and waiting for parts to come in so a week later we can fix what we broke and then try fixing what we wanted to in the first place.
