I am in the process of rebuilding my flippers on TOTAN and am having two issues. Right now, I am on my first flipper and am having some issues. Can anyone help:

1. When I cycle through the test mode, the power for the high-voltage coil is working, but when the low-voltage kicks in for the hold cycle, it is not enough power to get the flipper to flip and hold. It just buzzes.

2. I am having serious issues soldering the joint. And I've watched the youtube videos that have been posted already.

Thanks.

Got it. Thanks. I figured out the issue - it was the opto interrupter plastic. It happened to snap - just a coincidence that it broke off while I was rebuilding the flipper.
