    Good evening
    I recently picked up a last action hero with no flipper or shooter power.
    I replaced a blown fuse on solenoid board and replaced power supply with a new one from xpin.
    Everything functions perfectly now. However, I have an issue with the drop targets on the left that spell CRANE. They all drop and reset normally, as well as light up and trigger sound. The 2nd drop target, the “R” target doesn’t not light up when dropped and does not trigger any sound. This makes it impossible to spell “CRANE” and get the crane to move. I lifted the playfield and checked the EOS. It is clean and makes proper contact (tried manually) and still nothing. Checked the wires to switch tabs and it looks correct as well. I’m beginning to think it may be the diode. Maybe it’s bad. Any ideas??
    Thanks in advance.

    Have you traced the wiring back from the other switches in the same chain? It may have a broken, cut or pinched wire on another switch upstream.
