    Is it only one flipper? if it is then maybe it's the transistor. Check the fuses. Check the fuses again. Reseat all connectors on the boards especially the ones for the cabinet. Coils very rarely go bad. It's just a coil of wire. If a coil goes bad it's usually because a transistor went and the coil stayed on and started to melt.
