My Metallica LE is having a strange problem that only shows every once in a while. When playing, the flippers go dead for a few seconds just like when somebody opens the coin door. It lasts a second or so, sometimes a few seconds, and you can continue with the next ball after that.
Somebody suggested recent Stern pinballs have a problem with the opto in the VUK of the ballthrough, but could that lead to dead flippers? I would think there was a problem with the coindoor circuit?
Any tips or similar experiences?
