So I am finally getting my HS2 going, and I've been enjoying playing it but I found that I couldn't stage my lower and upper right flippers. Just making the first switch contact on the double switch stack powers both flippers.

When I checked with my multimeter there is continuity between the power wires (black yellow for upper, blue violet for lower) at the coils. So then I pulled J902 from the fliptronics board and tested from the connector end - also a short.

Should I be looking for a hack on the wiring harness, or worn insulation, or is this normal behaviour ?

Thanks
John

EOS switches?

I remember reading that has something to do with your ROM version, as in it works on L5 but not on L2. What version are you running?

Quoted from gunstarhero:

L1.
Yes, I saw one of the differences between L2 and L5 was ?? 2 state flippers ?? - I wasn't sure what that was , but anyway this seems hardware related rather than software?

I can't check for you since I run L2 myself but I bet if you put in a L5 ROM it will work as you are hoping for it to.

Maybe hit the Getaway owners club and see if any L5 users can confirm?
