I have a strange problem that I need so help on . So here what happened . I turned the machine on and started playing and it started going crazy when i hit the flipper buttons . I went into the switch test and all the switches on the machine work okay . Then I pulled the flippers up and here's what i see .

R flipper switch 22,14,06,46,38,30

L flipper switch 45, 37, 29, 21, 13, 05

I pretty sure I have a column issue on 1j10-5 and 1j10-3. I'm not really sure where to go from here .

If it just started I'd be going over everything and see if you have an obvious short or anything. Wires shorted to something, pinched, metal parts behind a board, etc. etc.

LTG : )

Well it seems that I'm on this thread all by myself . But just to jet everyone know that I found and corrected the problem . I isolated the problem to the cpu doing the jumper test . I finally traced it to Q43 transistor . I then tested the transistor and found that it was bad . replaced it and know everthing works great .

Well, you did exactly as I would have advised. Nice work...and as Josh said, it feels good, doesn't it?

I'm going to link this in case you haven't seen it, even though you have solved your problem.
I found it very useful and practical as a newb.
