This is a 2 lug flipper coil right? That means the eos switch doesn't cut power to the pull in winding it tells the flipper board that the flipper is up so it can modulate the voltage to the flipper.

I'd hook a dmm to it on VDC and see what the voltage averages out to on the bad flipper with it in the hold position and then do the same on the good flipper.

Tech guys. Please let me know if I have the wrong assumption in how these Stern flippers work.
