So, this thread is great, but it's way too in-depth for most people trying to solve or reduce the problem. What kind of summary could you give on the ways to help this problem from simple to in-depth? If this is happening to me once ever 5-25 flips (always only the left flipper!), what simple-ish things should I do to reduce that problem?
Is the first step to clip the cap off the pop bumper switch?
