Quoted from fatality83:

Now that I think about it, not sure that switch tells the plunger when to fire or not. The more I think about it and how the plunger fires regardless even though the switch is open, makes me think its not involved. I did take the apron off yesterday and didn't see any adjustments. Also I noticed when I was in there to look at the switch that I am not sure the coin door switch is working. When I open the coin door with the game on, it doesn't show coin door open, high voltage disabled. Shows no message at all and just keeps going in attract mode like normal. I tried pressing the coin door switch in switch test however, it doesn't recognize it being pressed. Is this normal or is the coin door switch bad?

Coin door switch does not disable high voltage on this game.

Are you talking about the plunger just during multiball? That might be timed. If you don't have a shooter lane switch what happens when you drop the ball into the shooter lane during play? It should auto launch.

Either way, fix the switch and hopefully it'll clear things up.

Wrong switch. You need one that bends back down under the playfield so it doesn't come up far enough to get hit by the plunger.

As you discovered, no EOS switches in this era of Data East. The 4 fuses on the flipper board are in pairs for left and right. One is for the inital flip 50v power and one is for the hold power (7v i think?) I imagine your hold fuses were loose or blown. Sounds like you solved that one.
