I was reseating connections on the boards today, trying to diagnose a flicker issue. Upon reseating all the connections the flippers no longer work. i do not have a manual and a complete novice when it comes to diagnostics.
what is the flipper fuse?
any connection areas that I should be paying attention to?
the ball launch works as well as drop downs and switches when i manually control the ball.

solenoids all work in the solenoid test
i was only in the backbox so it has to be something related to the reseating of cables

Go over connectors. Be sure you didn't miss any, have them on backwards, ribbon cables red stripe pin one each end and not off by a row of pins.
For a start I'd go to Tests - Switch Edge, and slowly push flipper buttons in. See if both optos on each one register on the DMD. So you know if you lost flipper button switch or power.
Four fuses on fliptronics board. I doubt you blew all of them.

You were right it was a connection problem.
I appreciate your help as always
