Hey guys, I recently picked up a PF, overall it's in good shape, but recently the flippers have started dying for no apparent reason.
I've checked the voltages to the coils when they are working, flippers read around 65 volts(not under load) When they die I'm not getting any voltage at the coils. I've tested all the fuses on the aux driver board (all of them tested good out of circuit) and re-flowed the solder on all of the fuse housings with no results. All of the IDC connectors are unburned and the male pins look untarnished.
If I leave the game off for a day or two every thing is fine for about a day or so before the flippers die again.
Any ideas?
