I am having this exact same issue with a Space Invaders. Upper Right flipper won't stay up, but quickly goes up and back down when fired. Switch tests fine, coil did too, but I replaced it anyway. No change. I'm going to swap out SDB's in a few to see if the issue is the circuit on the board.

Quoted from Billc479:

Virii - I doubt its the SDB, since the activation of the upper flipper is controlled by the lower flipper. I suspect a wiring issue with the switches on the EOS, in spite of you already replacing them. Don't forget you have two EOS - one on lower and one on upper.

You are correct. Not the SDB. I'll dig back into the switches again after I get some paying work done.

Mine turned out to be a badly adjusted EOS on the lower right flipper.
