Have changed the coil over and replaced the fuse that blow to when I turn on my rs the bumper coil powers up and holds the in position and get hot.

Replace the two driver transistors on the driver board for that coil.

Dam I thought it was going to something that I couldnt fix . Looks like the board is going off to the repair man.
That sux was looking forward to a game tonight. Oh well that's pinball.

Have you ever soldered anything before? This is a fairly easy repair, even for a beginner.

if you don't trust it to solder on the board, just cut out the body of the old transister and leave the old legs on the board , then you have more place to solder the new transister on the old legs .

good advice. Just about anyone can do it this way, as long as there are no solder bridges between pins, this will work just fine. May not look pretty, but beats lifting a trace.
