Hi there,

Had an issue today, left right flipper stopped working on my #TFTC (Data East V3).

When I look at it from below, it moves a tiny bit but that's it. Tested the diod and coil => both ok.

So that makes me think that the coil is not getting enough power (did not manage to find where to test the power getting to the coil to read the voltage...).
Could it be the SR1 from the flipper board?

Any advice would be great to pinpoint and solve this

I am sure someone has had this issue before

in short: check fuse clips on flipperboard, eos-switch at flipper unit.

Fuse clips and EOS are fine, checked them straight away, but it does look like a continuity issue. Going on with my tests to pinpoint the issue.
Thanks for the link

So, in the meanwhile I fitted a friend's board from a Maverick => working fine.

Bought the rottendog board, working fjne. Pretty sure it's the SR1, so I will change it and test, but my wife can play with it (it's hers) while I wait on the part to arrive from China
