OP
Quoted from the4horse:

I have had all boards rebuilt recently by a trusted technician. When I flip the switch underneath, the coils for kickers and pop bumpers lock on. I switched off immediately and disconnected the second connector on the driver board. I switched on again and the game goes into attract mode and starts a game but obviously bumpers flippers and kickers are inoperable. Should I be looking on the driver board or is there something going on under the playfield? I can't see anything obvious like wires disconnected or damaged.

At your convenience upload a photo of the driverboard.

All special coils locked on:
Reinstall coil output connector
do the the flippers work in game over mode?

I'm hesitant to plug it back in even for a split second as there are so many coils locking on I'll do more damage to the driver board.

Suspect 1 or more chip failure the four special solenoid chips are interlaced together.
Have any of the pop bumper & sling the coils been replaced before?
