Good Morning Everyone,

I can hear the flipper coils on my Fish Tales 'pulsing' when the they are held up, resulting in a full power flip, and then a noticebly weakened flip. Entire flipper assembly is new, and the EOS switches work in switch test. Fliptronics board (rottendog) has been swapped with another RD fliptronics board, same result.

Any ideas where I should start looking to resolve?

Thanks,

Joe

Quoted from JadedHesher:

Hi !
So you can hear the coils when buttons are pressed down ?
When you hold the flipper and then let go and press the button, the flipper action is slow coming up ?
Is this something that has unfolded in front of you ? Your flippers worked fine and now this ?
Could you make a video ?

Hi Jared,

Yes, you can hear them pulse when the flippers are held in. I'm in the middle of a total rebuild of the machine so I'm not sure when it started exactly (machine was in pieces for waaaaaaaay too long).

I'll try to make a video this evening.

Thanks,

Joe
