    are you able to lift the flipper up and down, a millimeter or two, meaning does it have some play in it?

    wondering if maybe the flipper can't move properly due to resistance of the flipper bat against the bushing due to the crank so close?

    the flippers work via the relay on the solenoid driver board, is that relay pulling in when you start a game?

    does the LH flipper work?

    have you had a look at the flipper switch contacts in the cabinet?

    I think the 43VDC goes to the soldenoid driver board, through the relay to the coil and the path to ground is through the flipper switch, the ground being in a plug on the power supply board in the base of the cabinet.

    try and trace with a multi meter set on continuity/tone from the flipper contact that goes to ground

    you can reduce the spark on the flipper contacts by adding a 0.1uF/100nF ceramic capacitor across the flipper switch solder tabs.
