Sounds like a bad transistor. Check Q87 on the power driver board with your DMM.

Quoted from Monarca1091:Man my tz went bad today
What broke on the TZ?
Quoted from Monarca1091:It says check fuse f114 and f115.....
Check the C2 capacitor next to the Q2 voltage regulator on your driver board. Those get hot and when they go bad, they will pull down your 12v and cause that error message.
That flipper uses two transistors: a TIP36C (Q87) for the initial flip and a TIP102 for holding it up. I suspect it is the TIP36C that went bad. Pinball life and Marco Specialties both have them. Any good, local electronics supply store should also carry them.
