Hi,
I am new to the pinball universe so please bear with me. I have a Truck Stop that has 2 flippers on left and right side. Worked fine, all of the sudden the top left stopped. I have looked around on here for ideas and have tried to troubleshoot, no dice. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Broken wires at coil, blown fuse, leaf blade switches that fire them not working.

Vid1900 here on Pinside wrote a good flipper guide, search for it.

Yeah, open it up, check out the coil. I had this same problem and I ended up replacing it, worked great after. Solder it off, and solder a new one on.

The coil wires are still in tact. I'll check the fuses since that's easy. I actually have already experienced soldering coils, I had to replace one on my Comet. I just got back in town and had my TZ LEDs waiting. Wow, they are worth every penny. Thanks much for both of your help. Am I overlooking how to easily find this thread or do i need to search it up every time?

Thanks

if you look at the top of this page to the right of the title "pinball flipper trouble" you will see a place to click called "add this topic to your favorites." after that when you are on the front page of the forums at the top of all of the threads there is a tab marked "your favorites" it will be there.
