When I replaced a flipper coil, I tried to do the right thing and put the diode end away from the stop. The machine had been set the other way before. One of the wires was too short so I soldered another piece on to make the length. Its a thicker wire. The flipper is definitely weaker than its counterpart. Can this be the cause?
Going to rebuild entire thing, but would like to know if this is an issue.

thanks I will re check all the above its not a pretty solder, but it did look solid. At least have a list of things to check

I went to file the cabinet switch and with the heat shrink tubing it looked like the connections were good. But alas when I pulled to see if secure one end of the capacitor was broken. It Not sure if this would be the issue but will fix this first

Do the replacement switches for the right flipper cabinet no longer have a capacitor?

Thanks. I called it a file, but thats what it is..
